I've sent Brian Belevender off with 10 - 10 packs of the drop-shot tubes.  Mixed in a couple of the new St. Clair Crayfish with them.

I had tons of hats (c'mon, we all need more hats!!!) and many, many great prizes. My apologies to Grandt Rods (http://www.grandtrods.com/) for forgetting to bring the excellent All American Series spinning rod. It was won by big bass catcher (and perennial high finisher) Jay-MadWags - I will get it to you.

Wayne Carpenter of Combat Fishing and Xtreme Bass Tackle (http://www.combat-bassfishing.com/) came down in the morning once again to help out and see us off. Thanks Wayne!

I want to add a big thanks to Chris Slone (csfishslayer) of MINNOW'S & MORE, 4516 IMLAY CITY RD, ATTICA MI 48412, 810-724-6001 who was very kind in bringing along a BIG assortment of quality poured jigs and weights - a welcome and nice surprise - THANKS Chris!!

And also jcheetam who custom-painted a couple of very nice jerkbaits in a killer spring color for Lake St. Clair.

Thanks to all of the people who supported the 2008 Spring DK Open and GreatLakesBass.com!!!

I have to add again that other GLBass sponsors and supporters wanted to donate, but due to my late request notice, they were not able to get things to me. Some will come in over the next few days to be used for additional contests for all of you over the summer including more great stuff from KaRu and from Case Plastics.
