Mr Q Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Ever try these contests that local bait shops sometimes run? Years ago I did for the first time and at a local bait/tackle shop in my town. You picked a species (I picked largemouth) and entered the contest with one dollar. This was in the spring when I visited the shop to stock up on tackle like usual. A couple months later I remembered the contest and figured I would take home a 5 pounder to enter in the contest just for general principals. Then forgot the contest till late fall when I visited the shop and the owner told me that I won the contest! "How could that be? I only entered a 5 pound fish!" He said that the next biggest fish was only 3 pounds. I ended up with a $98 prize (in store merchandise from the 98 people entered in the species) and got a medium duty Penn spinning reel pluss a handfull of tackle. So you never know about these contests - try one and let us know the results! Quote
