We won the ROD!!

Just got the call from Steve, My 16 year daughter Amanda (Scup Gril) Won the Ron Arras Custom Rod from the MSBA!!

She is psyched!! I will be meeting Steve Thursday to pick it up!!

Just Great!! I payed the gas, admittance, raffle money and she gets the rod??

Then she has the b--- to say will you buy me a good real for it!!

This is great!! She is going to DC for a week with school so she will not be there to get it, But she is thankful to all!!

Thanks all this really makes the year for us!!

Any reel sugestions??

Good for her. That's great. Hopefully she uses it and lands a nice 50! Now Dad, how about a nice VS for her?

Good for her! Glad to see S-B winners.

Now Joe, if she isn't gonna be in the surf, find her a good boat set up that will be hers. This is assuming she will be primarily fishing on the boat with you. (And let me know what you want for that rod)

That's great scup Girl congratulations!!!!

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Congrats to your daughter!!!

that 1204 would look mighty nice in my collection...let me know if you do plan on selling it as I would be VERY interested.

If you are a boat person and you are going to sell it I have a brand new penn 975LD that has only been used twice that I am willing to trade for the 1204...let me know if you do plan on getting rid of it.

I will be heading to Mikes to see what he has for a reel, Something cheap but nice, in the middle??

so far she say's NO SALE guys!

She is getting a car soon and will be fishing from shore she says when she can.

What a first rod!! And she just bought her self some nice plugs from Salty at the show, Just need that real now and she is better set up then the old man!!

I am still trying to figure out were I went wrong??

I have been taking her fishing for 10 years, all at my cost, Take her to all the shows again at my cost, Buy the winning ticket and she ends up better off then I do?? I even offered to take the rod off her hands and give her a brand new Diawa Sealine I have in the celing, and she says no way!

Thats it I am charging her for all her bioat rides now!

Thumbs up

Joe, you can probably go with one of the Nautils for short money and they handle the surf very well.

Congrats to yourself and your daugter on the win!! Tell her to play the numbers she may be on a roll

Domination takes full concentration..
