John & Rob - was wondering if any of your sponsors will be able to donate some product to the invitational? Know you guys aren't going to be able to make it (we'll work on that next year so we can fish with you two!) but it would be cool if we could get some product.

Anyway, let me know either here on call me on my cell @ 415.602.6897

Thanks!

For a couple years now, Dink Mendez has offered to provide tackle donations for our tournies ('Rodstrainer' jigs & spinnerbaits), but as far as I'm aware, neither club has ever gotten around to coordinating anything with him. Every time I talk to him at one of the bass shows in the area, he says we just need to give him a call! I think we could get some cool stuff from him.

If you need a number, I can probably dig it up somewhere; just let me know. I don't think we should pass him up any longer! - j

I will see what all I can do and will let you know Todd. Maybe I can get some big hammer stuff for you guys. I know it will be on the end of my line come October.

Jeff is right Todd be sure to contact him, the info below is all i have as well as there web site.

I've actually been talking to him for the past couple of months and he said he'll get some goods to us probably in the beginning of October!

Thanks guys for your help!

I am not sure if I can find a lake to donate but maybe Rob can get the swimbait. :)


I sent you an email about this after I got your VM. I will work on Okuma and bigfishtools.com

Just wondering if you sent it to my earthlink or work address. My home system is down so if you need to get a hold of me my work address would be preferred - sfo1tmi@ups.com

I used what ever address you are logged in as on the forum. Either way I will work on it. Just to let you know with everything coming up so quick Its not going to be a priority,but I will try and help.
