earthworm77 Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Each year I am asked to participate in charity work for various church groups, scout clubs, sportsmans clubs etc. This year I was asked by some members of Floridas Rolling Thunder Organization to come up with a tackle package to be auctioned off for the benefit of the Haley House. Haley House is one of the largest Veteran Hospitals in the Country. Rolling Thunder is a group whose efforts are to publicize the POW/MIA issues, Educate the Public that many American solidiers were left behind, Committed to helping Veterans of all American wars and correct the past to protect the future so that none of our soldiers will ever be left behind again. In my opinion, this is one of the most worthy causes that I've been involved with and The Haley House is in Florida. The auction is on April 8th, and all proceeds go to the Haley House fund, to provide better living for seriously injured veterans. Rolling Thunder is a tax exempt 501 c 4 non profit organization, Haley House is a Tax exempt 501 3 c organization. I'm asking anyone who can donate some type of fishing related goods for this auction please contact me. My goal is to put up a substantial package(s) so these folks know that we, the bass anglers care. All who help will be recognized for their efforts. Thanks for the consideration.

jmik26 Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 earthworm - I don't have that much of a stock pile built up yet. What I do have is about 100-150 senkos, 5" & 7" that were prototypes. We were experimenting with colors, glitter, salt, and different plastics. I would be more than happy to send your way. What is the cutoff date for this? Buy the way, thanks for you help in NYC :!: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthworm77 Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 The auction is April 8th. I'd like to have everything listed and boxed by the middle of March. Anything you can put together is appreciated and I will do whatever have to, to make sure people who help out are publicly recognized for their efforts. As for 9-11, I appreciate the thanks. We did what we had to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthworm77 Posted February 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 That was the pilot for Lunkerville and likely the reason it got picked up. That fish was a nice fish. I dropped one a little larger at the end of the filming. I know it was over 5 because I caught it the week before in the same exact spot.

earthworm77 Posted February 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I just wanted to thank everyone who has either sent something out or has committed to helping out. The day of the Auction is April 8. If anyone is still interested in helping out, we would welocme that. Special thanks to LedHed, Kistler Rods, GBlanks, and fishforfree.com for the packages they sent. Anyone who is planning to send items, I will add them to this list. Thanks again!
