Ladies and Gentlemen:

This has been a pleasure to see the support for Don brought about by all of you. Between this raffle started by Fishpart and I and the one at Plugfest started by BigFish and #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&, we have raised a nice amount for a friend of all of us to help defray some of his medical costs. I will total up the raffles this weekend (probably after TFCTF). Thank you very much for your warm words of support for Don and keep him in your thoughts and prayers for a full and speedy recovery…

Thanks and congratulations,

John Redmond
Narragansett Bay

:claps:

GMS - congrats. Shoot me a PM with yor address and I'll check with Crafty to see how best to ship it....

IWK - I know for the rod setup and epoxy I will be doing that over the course of a couple nights so it just would not be practical. I can't speak for Goose as I'm not him :hee:

Congrats to all and to Uncle Crafty who appears to have won a walk in the rubber department, you should do this before MSBA show on the 19th and 20th of March to really have a shot at some sweet stuff. Pop me a pm or email and we can work out something, maybe an evening romp in the plastic.

I've been pouring every chance I get to get ready for the show, so now is the best time to hit me for the best selection, which right now is a rainbow of colors.

To others going to the TCTFN tomorrow, there will be rubber for the raffle table:).

Will do, Bob - I'll see ya at TFCTFN and discuss the particulars -

I know DZ likes your stuff a lot and I'm real anxious to try it this coming season - thanks again, I'm psyched! :bounce:


:thanks:

If this isn't a WIN WIN situation! wow!

Don M, you sure have brought the best out of a lot of people.
Hopefully our paths will cross someday.

And to win the Adamr plugs (under construction) I ready.

Hmmmmmmmm I wonder what "Under Construction" means. I hope it means AdamR is building the plugs and not that I have to assemble all Clammers beat up bluefish plugs :)

We know how much he loves bluefishhhhhhhh

Thanks to all !

Megabyte, check your PM's.
Adam
