OK - running between now and July 15th we'll be running the raffle for the 11' Lamiglas Custom Arra Spinning Rod donated by MikeCC - this thing is schweet and if I remember right, retails for $360 from Lami for an off the shelf and over $400 at some custom shops... If I remember right, the model # is XRA 1322-2.

As you all know, I don't run a tackle shop to help support this site, nor have I hit Powerball (still hopin'). As the site has grown - so have our costs. We now are running on our own server and eat up tons of bandwidth. Not being a rich philanthropist, we rely on ( cheap :hihi: ) sponsorship rates from a handfull of QUALITY sponsors here (anyone disagree that we have the best sponsors? :hihi: ) and the other "revenue" stream S-B relies on is our Too Cold To Fish Nite with the raffle items provided by many of YOU and from our Raffles and Auctions we run. YOU all help keep the lights on too (thanks BTW :claps: ). So this is another raffle of FRIEKIN' NICE STUFF to help support the site.

I'll have the rod for display this weekend at Mikes for the Mass Leg os the S-B 4 Leg Tourney :)

Tickets will be: 2 for $5 // 5 for $10 // 12 for $20. You can pay cash if I see you at the cook out, PayPal using the donate link below then by PM'ing me with your name so I can match it to your PayPal name, or by check / MO - payable to Linesider Technologies - Snail Mail to:

Linesider Technologies
PO Box 9183
Warwick, RI. 02889


Again - big round of applause to MikeCC of M&D's / CapeCodTackle.com for building and donating this rod as a fundraiser for the site!!!!!!

Every time i goto the shop ( witch is ALOT lol ) i look at this rod and it is SWEET!!! will be buying tix this weekend :)

Wifey has been slave driving me so I'll get the numbers out this week :doh: :hihi:

Yes, John, a satisfied woman can be a tough taskmaster :hihi:

Just ask me, Mrs Crafty has been workin' me like a rented mule :hs:

Of course, fishing four outta the last five nites pushed the envelope a little - then I capped it by staying out til 3 AM Monday nite with no feesh for the table -

I'll tell ya, that did not go well with the CO......:smash:

Hey, she said she didn't care how much I fished over the holiday weekend, so I believed her -

Ya can,t get @#$%^& out /// T &A hey,hey,, :D :D :happy:

Which hooters, where, what time, I wanna be there and meet a few of you guys. and of course enjoy the wings :D

Hi John,
Been away for awhile. The usual stuff - work, kids, demanding wife(sorry dear!) etc,etc. Just sent $20 via Paypal. Good luck to all. How's the boat coming ?

I stupidly sent JohnR a PM - sorry John.

So what are the details? When and where and how is the winner (me ) being selected. I have just the spot to try that baby out this weekend.

-IWK

OK - everyone should have been PM'd their ticket numbers - many as recently as this afternoon ('cept for Clammer / Fishpart /Maddog & me :hihi: - yeh I'm getting 12 tickets, well my wife is). I also don't have the screen name for the fellow with the last name of Wehr - I have ticket numbers for you but have not PM'd them yet. Please shoot me a PM / Email just so I can match the name with the screen name - thanks!

OK, drawing details. This Rod Raffle, being the popular event that it is, would be best served in interest of honesty and integrity, to having the numbers chosen by an interesting disinterested :eek5: party. So I propose that the drawing will take place sometime between 7pm and 8pm, Tuesday July 20, at our Semi-Official Striped-Bass.com meeting hall (Hooters - Airport RD - Warwick, RI) and have the waitress pull the lucky number. All are welcome. We just splits some wings, tell lies, and draw the tickets...

Good luck & THANK YOU!!!!


John

HOOTERS........................................... ..................'

:humpty: :hee:

Ah Jeesh-huh?

Tell us who the lucky winner is, or at least what the lucky number was.

Drawing is July 20 - :

Tuesday Night @

HOOters :laughs: :hihi:

DAMN - Sorry for the language JohnR.

I have to take the GirlFriend to Rod Stweardon Tuesday.

The Rod Steward contest is sort of an exchange. I was given a trip out with Bill and Jules this spring. I n exhange, I am taking her to Rod Steward.

-IWK

Mea Culpa, I thought I put Tuesday in the Hooter's Post, but didn't - my mistake...

Oooops

We fishin' after seeing HOOTERS?

I'm in!

I want that Rod!

Donate to a poor struggling deaf fisherman!

(not Notaro, he already has a sweet Saltheart crafted fishing rod and a clown-like pair of Green Waders.)

sorry can't make it..not old enough...maybe next time;)

Again - THANKS TO EVERYONE! Thanks to MikeCC for the donation!!
