The 2011 Winter STINKS Giveaway
ByAfter much thought on the subject I have come to the conclusion that winter STINKS! This comes following the cleanup of the latest foot of snow dumped on my driveway as the result of the 7th snowstorm to bury us since the day after Christmas. Now I realize that there are parts of the country where this stuff is a way of life but not here on Long Island. You can be sure that we have had some huge blizzards across the area over the years but the past does not compare with the winter of 2011 to date. Backaches and overall soreness are the order of the day this year and I am beginning to feel as though I should be attending the shareholders meetings for Tylenol corporation.
I’ve decided that I need a fix of something fishing related. With that said I am happy to announce another lure giveaway. The 2011 Winter Stinks Giveaway is offering another of my favorite top-water lures, the Super Strike Little Neck popper. This little beauty is deadly on striped bass and bluefish populations. The plug is made of high impact plastic and features through-wired hook holders to stand up to the beating these fish can put on a lure.
To take your shot at this lure post your very best fishing action photograph. Let’s see some bent rods and anglers straining against a fish screaming the drag off. Basically, let’s see you HOOKED UP!!! Bluegill or bluefish, it does not matter. A little detail on the picture would also be nice but definately not required
As with my previous giveaways, there is nothing hidden here, no strings attached or obligations. You post your HOOKED UP submissions and a I will pick a winner from them. Plain and simple, that’s all there is. The winner gets the plug and the others can take solace in the fact that they helped the Captain to temporarily forget about the nasty old winter.
This will be open for submissions until February 14th at which time a winner will be announced here on the site.
If this sounds good then let’s see ‘em!!!!

That was a drum , and he pulled me all the way down there from the end. Nothing quite like the way a red drum shakes his head when you hook up.
Gotta love it man!
NICE!!!! What was at the end of the line?? Is that one of your Kings ??
You want a picture with bent rods well here’s the best bent rod picture I got for 2010

When the winter gets to you up here….go south. The fish are big, have teeth and are downright mean…and they hit on every drop of the jig.

Hi Jim,
That is a great shot there. Is that a ‘cuda cut in half ?? I guess even with those teeth there is still a bigger boy on the block
Good hearing from you and thanks for the picture

Wading the Lake Michigan tributaries for Steelhead. Water was about 40*. We hooked up several, caught a few. It was a success.
