redg8r Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 Guys, Chirmy sent me a pic over to post & i just wanted to say, I think you folks are an awesome bunch to help a fellow maker out in a crunch. Ive known Tim (chirm) for some time & know he's there for ya if the shoe was on the other foot. You guys are the best, wish him luck in the upcoming competition, but with baits like I see here from FatRatz, Coley & Legendary Lures.....luck might not be needed Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadlystreamer Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Wow what a demonstration of caring and resourceful people we have here. It's great that all you guys have chipped in to help by donating your bates. I want to let you guys know that through a PM I offered some of my streamers and because I'm in a category of my own, My flies weren't needed for this endeavor. As I read many of your post I really get excited about the thought of trying to make some different bates. As soon as we get some 30 hour days, I'll try some and see what I can come up with, but for now I'll just stay in my busy little corner and watch you guys and dream on. IF luck is needed, I wish Tim all the best there is in the up coming competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Splash Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 OK Chirmy, it looks like you are set up with a variety of baits, now when was that tourney? You can bet all of us here at TU will be watching for results!! GOOD LUCK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirmy Posted August 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 I would say I went from the poor house to the mansion thanks to some great guys on this site. I have managed to ship out a couple dropshot kits to some of you (I had some old ratty boxes laying around) the rest of you will get yours soon. 2 weeks. I dont know how many of you fish competitively, but man am I excited. The Open is a combined weight format (means I dont have to catch a fish and still can win). Alot is luck of the draw. They tell me who I fish with, I get in, Sit down and shut up but kick their ass at the fishing hole. Last year I drew Mike Folkestadt the first day and he went on to win I went on to take 62nd . The second day I drew Dave Gleibe. Just for entering they give you about 200.00 worth of stuff and during the draw they give away big stuff. If you guys have vacation time next year and you can front the 600 entry fee or better yet 1600 and fish as a Pro you should try this.
