Hey, thanks for the lessons in "combat fishing" yesterday afternoon.  It was a lot of fun!

And if you and "that guy" weren't playing with your trucks in the parking lot when we got back I'm sure I would have remembered to cut your crankbait off my rod!  LOL!!

Yup.  Totally by accident.  He loaned it to me in the afternoon to try out and I just forgot to cut it off. 

You think I can get good money for it on ebay or something?  Should I start accepting bids?

No! LGMOUTH said to get it to me and I will get it to him! Thanks!

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

Your welcome Mike. Still not sure how you managed to keep that fish on. As far as the crankbait goes, I think Mike was trying to sneak off with it until he got caught.

And GIVE the crankbait to Kimmel, I repeat GIVE the crankbait to Kimmel.
When you are in any contest you should work as if there whereto the very last minute a chance to loose it.

I thought that was weird that you just gave a crankbait away.  The "fishing gods" would never give away a crankbait.

Mike S.

Yeah, but the fishing gods probably don't have the truckloads of tackle that Don probably has. He's probably got 20 more just like it.

New contest Dan. Win one of Don's tackle boxes. What do you think? 

Waterfoul

I have been informed by the "fish" that something "fishy" did indeed transpire.

And as far as I know... there are only 2 of these crankbiats currently in circulation.  Makes it really valuable eh??
