OFF!® Official Mosquito and Tick Repellent of Major League Fishing for 2026

OFF!®, America's #1 best-selling mosquito repellent brand*, is the official mosquito and tick repellent of Major League Fishing (MLF) beginning in 2026. This landmark partnership brings effective insect protection to competitive bass fishing, helping anglers stay protected during long days on the water.

What Insect Repellent Do Professional Bass Anglers Use?
Through this exclusive partnership, MLF anglers and attendees will be introduced to OFF!® Deep Woods® MAX aerosol to defend against mosquitoes and ticks during competition. This new insect repellent features:

  • Up to 10 hours of mosquito and tick defense
  • Fragrance-free and non-greasy application
  • Reliable formula that won't damage fisher’s gear (fishing lines, equipment, or painted surfaces)

Why This Partnership Matters
OFF!® has been a pioneer in personal insect repellents for over 65 years, backed by SC Johnson's expertise in insect science.

"This partnership represents a natural fit between two organizations committed to helping people enjoy the outdoors," said Boyd Duckett, MLF CEO. "Our anglers spend countless hours on the water, and having reliable protection from mosquitoes and ticks is essential to their performance and comfort.“

How Does OFF!® Protect Anglers from Mosquitoes and Ticks?
