If I had a dollar for every time I have checked my email today... I want that rod bad!

I know I could buy 4 or 5.

If I win that justifies buying a new reel right????????? 

Shouldn't bass resource members with a 1000 posts and better get preferential treatment in the giveaway. 

It's actually 1050 posts gets preferential treatment. Sorry

Shouldn't there be a minimum post requirement aswell ? Like at least 40. Seems kinda unfair that someone who never participates in the forums or never will after this is done has an equal chance as someone who has been on for more than 2 weeks? Seems like so one could signup just for the chance of a new rod and we never hear from them again. Just my 2 cents.

I think Matthew is right. Minimum post content should be appropriate, say 4500 on up .

Well, I say age 50 and above only be considered!

I think those should be in the no contest required category. You get a rod for being such a great member.

Take an arbitrary number of posts say, 368. That bassmaster should win.

Congrats Andy Johnson of Austin Indiana!

Congrats Andy .

Actually Hardy lake is very close to Austin, it's a smallish State Campground, with a very fertile lake.. I've done very well on it. In the early 90's a over 50" musky was killed by a ski boat ( prop

Nobody had a clue there was musky in there, DNR staff, were baffled..

I have fished Hardy lake many times. First time I fished it, it was a little intimidating. I had never fished water that clear before...lol.
