Time to get the show on the road... Storm Raffle - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

JohnR · 05-10-2002, 12:06 PM

OK - Sorry for the delay, I was supposed to do this weeks ago but have had a major brain cramp...

We decided over a month ago (almost 2) to auction of 2 batches of the new Storm Lure WildEYE Swim Shad Baits donated by Mike T @ CapeCodTackle.com (M&D's in Wareham). Each batch would include 5 packs - and they are sweet. Youze Guys on the boards decided that proceeds were to be split 50/50 between the American Cancer Institute, Breast Cancer Research and to help support this site, your ever loveable Striped-Bass.Com... Here are the previous threads: here and here

As I have mentioned - I was negligent in getting this rolling so here's what we're gonna do:

This Raffle will run for two weeks ending Saturday, May 25. I have created "Raffle Ticket" image on the site which you can fill cut out, fill in the blanks, and mail to our PO Box filled out and your check:

Linesider Technologies
PO Box 9183
Warwick, RI. 02889

*And please make it payable to John Redmond or Linesider Technologies*

Everone on the thread decided 2 chances for 5 bucks or 5 chances for $10...

I hope this should be enough info but if anyone has any ??s - feel free to ask. These are the colors we have:
Croaker Color (Mackeral like)
Bunker (Bunker like ;P )
Mullet (the fish, not Hair Style)
Green Sardine
Rainbow Trout
and Pinfish

Any duplicates will be in both sets...

Thank you all for your support and suggestions.

We will have another but vastly different raffle in the future for Brad "Hawg Hunter" Pohler - the details need to be worked out.

Thanks, your friendly Striper Website Operator...

PS - I'm gonna get 20 chances but I guess I need to send the money to Mike T or Saltheart

chris L · 05-10-2002, 12:12 PM

JohnR · 05-10-2002, 12:57 PM

Thanks,

John

.....Yes John....a couple of dumb ones......do we use our own chance numbers?...(make up our own)

....and we send you the long part of the ticket...and keep the stub correct?....

....yeah, I'm stoopit !!....just wanna make sure .......s'all.....

JohnR · 05-14-2002, 02:08 PM

YIP - keep the stub and send me the long part. When I get my copy, I'll e-mail you the numbers for them (I'll number them as I get them) and I'll put the numbers on the long part (I wasn't going to buy software to make raffle tickets

)... Then I'll give the long parts to Mike for his daughter to draw...

Me and Goose braved the "STORM" last night...and headed out in the blistering rain. We wanted to test out the 6" "Storms"...in an actual "Stormy" environment.

...I tied on a 6" Bunker pattern..and on the 2nd cast, FISH ON!!!...I even had a fish break my 20# test B.Game mono with one of these babies in HER mouth. I guess they're too good to give up!!!

..I was sold on these bad boys the minute I seen them hangin on the rack!! Both sizes have proven effective this season. I'm filling out the "chances" right now!!!...

.They're getting harder and harder to find...selling out everywhere...on back order at most local joints near my rocks....

Clammer · 05-14-2002, 03:26 PM

John,I,m good for $ 20 ,.i,ll see you before the deadline

needless to say great causes but i will !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, Mike
