My Adopt-a-Family Lure Giveaway- Updated w/Pics

D.W. Verts · December 07, 2017, 02:27:41 PM

Okay, I still have details to figure out, but for folks donating to this fine charity, I will give away some of the baits that I build. They are nothin' fancy, but I catch plenty of fish on them, and so will you. I don't own a lure company, but I call them "ProBaits"...

For your donations I'll give you 3-4 casting or flippin' jigs in 1/4, 3/8 or 1/2 oz. or football jigs in 1/2 or 3/4 oz. These will have Silicone skirts, or OLD SCHOOL live rubber (colors are a little limited here). I'll do my best to make 'em the colors you want, or I'll send you stuff like I use.

Or I'll do the same with a couple of Chatterbait-style lures, colors depending on what I have and/or can get.

These pics are of baits straight from my boxes. with trimmed skirts, weed guards, etc. I'll let ya'll do that stuff yourselves.

There's no limit to colors, but I know I'll have to order stuff. Please be patient- I'll fill the "orders" as soon as possible. Thanks for playing!

Give me a day or so to post some pics...

There ya go.

Thanks for the offer Dale and they do look nice but just the offer of it is good enough and your friendship.

Like I told Mike I'm doing this to help the family and like all of us not for the raffle. It's all in the spirit of Christmas and helping others just like your doing.

Stickups are a good spot to find a Bass hanging out. Either right up against it or close by.

I wonder how many of the young 'uns here would know what the term "stick ups' meant?

Dale you are a great addition to our little nut house. That is a mighty fine offer but If I want some you will get paid Sir.
Heck if I win one of the raffles it will go to Jonathan, the boy in the family.

It's no biggie guys, just tryin' to "fire up the school".

C'mon ya'll- BRING IT. $20 gets you in a drawing for some cool prizes, and I'll send you a handful of jigs (I can post more epics of what theycatch if'n you want) or a couple Chatterbaits.

Just twenty bucks. Please?

Smallie_Stalker · December 08, 2017, 03:32:47 PM

Dale, you're the man!!!

Mike the fox · December 08, 2017, 06:13:09 PM

You know what? Maybe I'll build ya'll a couple custom SPINNERBAITS. Ball bearing swivels. Fish catchin' MoCHINES.

I ain't jackin' around here- I build good, no frills (who needs powder coat, the fish don't care) baits that whack 'em. I use premium hooks. BIG hooks. I learned how to build baits from World Champion and Angler of the Year Guido Hibdon. I can pretty much do any color, any style, and I'll throw a little fish catchin' KARMA in with 'em.

Now ya'll got me sweatin'.

Pay the money, it only hurts (it shouldn't) for a second or two. Get a chance to win some really cool prizes, and get about $12 worth of baits back. Heck, I'm damn near ready to donate again, myself.

Please.
