Hey everyone,im back.
i know this has drug on longer then it should, but ive had some issues with my computer, an im still trying to figure out some of the particulars with lost data and fragged files, but without further ado here we go...
The Grand prize winner is .... Fishfingers007 by default over Catfreak who didnt manage a photo, but still did well enough to finish Second.
For there efforts, Fishfingers007 will be receiving 5 Rapala lures, and they are
CD-5 S
F-7 Goby
XR-6 P
SR-7 RCHT (thats a red chrome tiger fleet exclusive)
HJ-10 GFR
Catfreak will take home the following
F-18 SFC
HJ-12 S
CNR-8 BNC
and now for the Secret Awards, i know most all of you have been wondering, so its time to find out
in the category of best photo sporting rapala apparel is Casey10
Casey will win a rapalanation t-shirt of his choice.
in the category of best photo feturing an adult beverage, the award goes to Fishing-in-Israel, Nigel will be receiving a rapala bottle opener.
In the category of best fish on a Custom lure, the winner is Fishfingers007. Mark will get to choose the custom lure of his choice from Rapalamarket.com.
in the category of best photo without a fish, goes to Fishing-In-Israel, Nigel will also be winning the Fish Magnet kit (thats a rapala Magnet of course, a pack of decals, and an XR-8 BBS to help increase his odds for his next time out)
the categories that didnt have winners were best catch on a H-13 would have won a H-13 SFC, and the Best catch on a SFR would have won a SFR-5 SD, ted came soooo close a couple times to winning this one, but alas no winning photos. best catch on a special was one that i scrubbed before we got started, since this was an international contest, some lures are special here where other places they are not, as i have also seen ordinary lures in special boxes, this one was just too hard to verify and had to go.
well i had alot of fun with this contest, and i hope you did all too. i think i learned alot from it so that next time we can tweek and change to hone this into a great annual or semi annual contest. maybe next time we run it as a member vote, or single elimination, or as a tiered system of some sort. we'll see.
but for now, thanks again to all who played and too all of you who watched...
and now for the final winning photo from Fishfingers007...
