The kid pictures dominated this year but anyone can still win a FREE WaveSpin fishing reel (http://www.wavespinreel.com/) just by entering a picture into the contest, sharing it with members and getting other people to join GreatLakesBass.com to rate your picture! It's not that difficult! Just ask bigjc!
This is a social contest! If you're a social person and can share your picture through social sites and GreatLakesBass.com, you too can easily win a FREE WaveSpin fishing reel!
Next year anyway. This is the final GreatLakesBass.com WaveSpin Reel Picture Contest for 2012. THANK YOU to everyone who participated with entries and rating their fellow members' pictures!
bigjc, you will get an email from me telling you and Russ you can pick out and claim your new WaveSpin fishing reel (http://www.wavespinreel.com/).
A special thanks to Russ, Doug, Don and everyone else at WaveSpin Reel (http://www.wavespinreel.com/) for making this fun and easy contest possible once again!
This has been a fun contest. I got my whole family involved and we had fun with it. A big shout out to all of my facebook friends who came through and rated my photos.
Thank you Dan for a GREAT website, and a huge hanks to all the fine folks at Wavespin, for making it possible and for making a great product. Everyone that I have met who has used a wavespin reel, has nothing but good to say about them! I have replaced all of my Quantum PT spinning reels with Wavespin reels and I am super pleased with them!
I'm glad you're happy. Some of these other members will have to step it up a few notches!
I caught a 5 pound smallie (bass #2) on Skeg during the MadWags using my WaveSpin Reel. That chubby fish put the drag to the test. Reel 1. Fish 0. ;D

So 8 ratings for "close to 5 stars" beats 5 ratings for the maximum 5 stars? Hmmm.... I think the kids' cuteness beat my grimmace! LOL!!! ;D
That sure was a fine pair of smallies...I was temted to rate that pic myself!
Congrats!

Simpler than that - 8 ratings beats 5 ratings. You just need to make a few more friends. This should be a pretty easy contest to win for anyone with a social bone in their body, grimace or smile. Kids, pets or 'big' kids. Just my humble opinion.
bigjc has it figured out the best so far.
I will see if we can continue another round for 2013 and let everyone know.
I talked with Russ at WaveSpin Reels (http://www.wavespinreel.com) and he tells me they are onboard to run the WaveSpin Reel Picture Contests for 2013! Glad to hear that!
Anyone can win a FREE WaveSpin Reel with just a little effort! You all better bone up on your social skills so you can give bigjc a run for his photos!! ;D
Sounds good to me. Now that I've figured out the procedures.
Just don't forget! All you really need to do it get your friends and fellow members to rate your picture. You can use the social sharing buttons to share your entry on twitter and facebook too to get existing members and new members to rate your picture on here!
How about a Fall contest? All the kids are in school so us "old" adults might actually stand a chance of winning! LOL!!! :D
I'd like that but I'm out of reels to give away. I'll see if we can extend 2013 an extra session into fall fishing more. You could win. You just have to be social. That's all.
