I know a few members said they were donating some items. Please contact me and remind me so I can thank you here. Knew I missed someone. Tom Taylor and Jim Jackson from Case Plastics made a very generous donation also to our tournament. You can order online from the link above or find stores in your area.
I would like to try some Nemesis Swim baits....Any chance of getting a Handfull of them brought over to the open for me to buy??....
Basic colors..Green pumpkin, black blue..etc
Either that or we can hook up at some other time...
Moto, we got a bunch of tubes from McCarter before he went up north. Too late to get more. Between Bobber and myself, we have a pretty good selection of Nemesis baits if you want to try anything. Many other members have stuff too. I'm sure someone has some for you to try out.
I meant to say Swim JIGS not baits.....
Thanks Mike I will have to check them out....
Dan, I'm donating some crankbaits. The exact number will be between two and one million.

LOVE IT!! Good things we have 1,400+ members. That would mean at worst I have to package them up in lots of around 700! Only because I couldn't give away the whole million just at the event. Not enough space ;D
