Okay... been a while, I know. I've got a prize or two... but the old contest noggin is not working right now. Anyone have a good contest idea that is fair and works for a forum?? PM or email to me and I'll see if one works out to give away a prize or two.
Maybe....who could submit the best fishing picture (with the GLB member in the photograph for authenticity purposes) and have a poll to see who wins...
That way we could put some faces with the names.
That's another good idea!
Dan, see if anyone can identify this fish
Weird coincidence!!! I was just watching a show I won't mention yet - the host was catching a relative of that very fish. It was awesome!!!
Anyone got a guess? I might be able to dig out something from the prize vault for the first one who gets it right...
African Tiger Fish?
Dogtooth Snapper?
from the front that photo looks like a girl i used to date. :D :D
for a contest
how about guess the winning weight for the DK open. since it is a paper tourny you should have lots of winners..
How abou this for a contest,
Whoever buys the most Nemesis Baits at the Wonderland Extravaganza wins!
I like it.
;D
McCarter himself :-\'
For a long term contest how about biggest bass for the 08 season in a tournament for any GLB member?

If you'd recently seen a picture of a Tiger Fish... no comparison. We're talking fang envy!!!

That's a very good idea too. Let me see if I can put something together.
For now, although I enjoyed Durand Dan's tigerfish guess, I'm going to award a special prize to Team houston for getting closest to the right fish. All-American Team houston guessed dogtooth snapper - right type of fish, wrong sub-species, but close enought to win a KaRu Vibraspin Size 2 black and blue - GUARANTEED to catch many, many bass this season!!!
Congratulations Team houston!! How do you want to get it? At the DK open?
The actual fish is a less common, usually deep snapper called a Cubera - an abnormally long variety of snapper:
