Being that this fall's outing appears to be one of the biggest yet, Don, Kevin, and myself have worked very hard to try and come up with a variety of prizes.
Unlike past outings, this year we have planned something a bit different for the "friendly" crappie tournament to be held on Saturday September 13th. We have put together some "bigger" prizes for the winners. Keep in mind that none of these prizes were donated by any sponsor. We came out of pocket in order to get this off the ground with the hopes of continueing it from here out. At the liars club meeting on Friday night, we will discuss the details of the tournment (agreed upon by all), as well as the prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd... and so on. IF you would like to be a part of the "big" prizes, we ask for a $5.00 donation. This will help ensure that we can continue this at future outings. The money collected will be used for the purchase of future items, pavilions, and other things we might have had to come out of pocket for in the past. It is a good way to donate a little money and possibly win a cool prize.
EVERYONE will recieve a gift bag regardless if you would like to participate in the "big" prizes. The items within the gift bag have all been donated by great sponsors.
What are the Big Prizes?
I took the liberty of building a custom MHX fishing rod. This rod comes with a lifetime warranty and is "application specific". MHX does not manufactor production fishing rods. They are available to rod builders only. The rod I built for this is a new series that I have helped them test. It is a 10' light weight, fast action rod. Stout at the butt to about the middle and then very limber at the tip. It was built specifically for dipping lilly pads, jigging structure, or pushing and pulling jigs. It has a "michigan" style steelhead handle with fly fishing guide eyes to make it lighter.
