“From day one upon joining the team, the family culture within Strike King was palpable and real,” Rather Outdoors CEO, Ken Eubanks said. “Through John Barns leadership, accompanied by Doug and Mary Minor, Crispin Powley, Phil, and others, I was offered the opportunity to be made part of their family. Over the years since, I got to know the core of the Strike King team more deeply and can say without question that Phil Marks left his unique mark on me, as he did so many others. The best words I have to describe Phil is that he uniquely embodied everything that is right about the fishing industry and this lifestyle we’re all so passionate about.
