Kapow cracked the whip! Let's get some PMs out to sleeper members. If we have enough, I will do an economical 2nd place.

Another thing we should consider is the rod. I know we've talked about it some but do we want to do a 100% custom, built to the winner's specs? or a pre-made custom rod to be presented to the winner at the end of the contest? If we go 100% custom, the winner can expect a 2-6 month wait to get their prize. We will also have to use one entry fee for shipping the rod out to the winner. Again, makes no difference to me, just thinking out loud.

kennethdaysale · 01-24-13, 09:01 PM

Joe thats a tough one but personally I'd certainly be willing to wait. I know exactly WHAT I want in a rod and even though a pre-made custom would be fantastic, I'd prefer to wait however long to get the rod of my dreams. As a matter of fact being a realist I have already begun a slush fund so that when I don't win I'm gonna get Walker to build it for me anyway. IF

***EDIT*** I just got off the phone with Kevin and he says he's gonna match the pot and throw in a $400. Tackle Warehouse Gift certificate
so the winner can get a nice reel worthy of the custom!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOT

I agree completely, just wanted to throw it out there.

I just got off the phone with the "sisters" from Vegas. They're going to organize a parade for the winner.

Only way to go is WINNER CHOICE!

Maybe one angler wants a baitcaster and another a spinning setup.
There is NOTHING like being involved in a custom build!
Maybe someone wants an obnoxious color or some crazy other idea.

If the winner wants a pre-made than he/she can easily sell the once in a lifetime opportunity and go to TW instead.

Oh, dibs on the chance to BUY winners build!!!

Again this is just my idea but when Ken arranged the build and the idea was presented to Walker, I beleive the whole concept wasn't to get a pricey rod but a NELSON CUSTOM!
I could be wrong though?

kennethdaysale · 01-24-13, 10:36 PM

he probably logged off early so he could jump in bed and start dreamin of custom rods and special reels and padlocks ...Oh MY.....I haven't laughed this hard in a while I can just see John at the keyboard pecking his finger off hollerin...."Lisa! come quick! Look at this!"

bamabassman · 01-24-13, 11:37 PM

BWAAHAHAHAHAHA...nope. i didn't go to bed early. i went to ask lisa if she wanted in. and she said..................no.

she doesn't want to make this an UNFAIR contest. she said she would let YA'LL win..not ME....YA'LL. ain't that somehting, didn't EVEN say i had a chance. umph.....some wife huh?

so it'll jsut be us folks. so my chance of doubling my odds fell through the roof.

sigh...............

I think we can all sigh a sense of relief that Lisa chose not to enter. If she had, we may as well have given it to her now. We wouldn't have stood a chance.

kennethdaysale · 01-25-13, 07:50 AM

Sadly............someone is gonna have to tell bama to go back and read post #109 again very slowly, especially the 3 letters just to the left of the big grin

on some level I regret getting anyones hopes all worked up for nothing but like Dean said..........classic! If it was on video it'd be on AFV next week

woody · 01-25-13, 10:13 AM

not...not...not...

joedog · 01-25-13, 10:35 AM

Bubba Thanks!
For being willing to step up on a second place prize!

I know someone who really praises your abilities.
