ShoreGuy1984 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I am not sure if this is already being done, but there should be a best bass picture contest for the upcoming bass season. Everyone would vote towards the end of fall. We could just use the "Bass Photos--2009!" to post the pictures. Kinda like the same type of contest they have in the northern forum. Just a idea !

TonkaBass Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I would be in, I got a new digital camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fever Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I'm in... but my camera sucks. Maybe time for an upgrade. I guess it's a good excuse. Also, I fish alone alot. (like the peace and alone time...) that makes it tough too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olski Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I'm in for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I'll see if I can round up a grand prize... We dont have an Outdoors with Jonny P in the bass forum, but I can maybe scrounge up something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassfshin24 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 i'm in...and yes that is definitely a good excuse to get a new camera, i'll have to do the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBass Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 If I had a Hawaiian tropic girl hold a bass I caught I think I would have a chance. Fever - get a measuring board so when you're alone you plop them on that and hold them with one had then take a pic with the other. Check out my avatar. MSRD boards - he has a HSOforum too if you're interested that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 for those that fish alone, you need to look up a product called a lilly pod. its a camera holder that fits into a seat base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB Basser Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Deitz,You have a web link to that Lilly Pod. Maybe it's just thatI'm an old man and not all that computer literate but I couldn't find it with a google search?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 TB, I'm sorry I cant.. Forum rules do not allow for non sponsor links.. Its very hard to find using a search engine...

slopmaster Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Or instead of taking her camera all summer just take her with! thats what i plan on doing maybe if i take a picture of her holding my bass then i'll win then again sometimes she catches bigger ones than i do....

olski Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Remember if my hands look really big in a picture it's because I have really big hands. HAHA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 ya this is a great idea. Use the Bass Photos Page! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griggs Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 I'm in, so what are the criteria for judging the pics? Just the biggest fish or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoreGuy1984 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 So I guess we just wait for fall to be over now, huh. I probaly should have posted this topic closer to fall, so we do not forget about this idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Ek Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Deitz, you have mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonkaBass Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Olski you should post up some of those nice river pics A bass is a bass is a bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Ok, here is the deal.. and its not 100% hashed out.. we will do a similar contest to what the pike page did.. Our own Agape (Wayne Ek) has offered a free guide trip to the winning picture. Major way cool move.. I might be willing to throw my own name out there too.. dont know.. anyway.. once bass is open.. We will post a sticky thread at the top for best bass pict/story.. Its not about the biggest fish.. its about a pict.. and you have to post a story with it too..

goblueM Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 so can you submit multiple pics or does it have to be one per angler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Not sure yet.. Very good question.. I will make a new post.. I am going to send an Email to BassnSpear/Agape/Ray/RK... and see what they think.. I want this to be fun. But to be honest, the winner will win the equiv of $300-$400?.. so there will have to be rules.. but I will say this.. the winner will be voted by our faithful, not us!

TonkaBass Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Thanks TB.. it is awesome.. And I am pumped that Wayne agreed to do this.. There will be some stipulations. Probably will have to be a fall week day, no weekends type of thing.. But if he takes you to the lake he took me.. you have a great chance at a 5 lb fish.. 4's for sure.
