RiverSmallieGuy Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 Who judges the lures to determine who wins? Is it the moderators or is there like a poll for people to vote? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt - NC Posted March 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 It's usually myself and the moderators who do the judging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That bait took like a week to carve, sand, weigh, test, modify, and paint and clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cami Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 Dear sirs, about my entry FMM, you changed the contest box from the hand made hard bait to the fly one, but it is not a fly lure, it weighs more than 1 oz., it is used with bait casting rod, it is a "spinning" lure for Pike. Now it is a surface bait, but it is usual to add a jika weight to work it under surface, moreover there is a trailer in plastisol ... are you sure about this changing?

Curt - NC Posted April 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 @CamiI moved your entry because it is not a hard bait. SInce you don't consider it to be a fly, I will move it to the wire baits category due to its jig-like appearance and design. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt - NC Posted April 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 Well, here we go again. Some people are just plain not reading the rules, and are submitting multiple photos for a single bait. Let me reiterate, ONLY ONE PHOTO ALLOWED PER ENTRY. I will be deleting excess photos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that most of the people who posted multiple images are people that aren't part of the guys who regularly post on here like you, Vodkaman, JD_mudbug, me, Outlaw4, Big Epp, mark poulson, Curt - NC, Fishin Big, Travis and others I didn't remember off the top of my head.

Curt - NC Posted April 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 I'm not at all surprised either. It's the same thing every year. I expect it, but that doesn't make it any less of a nuisance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
