It was brought to my attention yesterday that maybe not all members have a pet. Theres gotta be some members on here that are college guys or military guys like me that just arent in a position to have a pet. I dont wanna leave anyone out.

I know theres has been times in my military career where I look to things such as fishing to comfort me. I didnt always have a boat, so getting to a pond with a fishing pole in my hand really made my day. Other guys stationed with me had different hobbies and passions that they turned to for comfort, such as gaming or customizing vehicles. Everyone has to fall back on something.

For that reason, Im opening this contest up to anyone. Anyone can post a picture of anything that has given them comfort in times of need. Im lucky to have a dog that is always happy to see me when I walk through the door. For someone else a fishing rod, boat, hobby you enjoy, vehicle, Xbox, camera, gun, or anything could serve the same purpose as a pet for us pet owners. So, the new rules are listed below.


Rules: No rules really, moderators and adminstrators are welcome to play. You dont need to have made a certain number of post or anything.

Any active member can post a picture of your favorite pet or favorite item/hobby that has given you comfort, along with a brief description and choose a number between 1-500.

Random.org will pick the winner. Closest number wins.

This can be any pet, not just a dog. Cat, ferret, hamster, snake, alpaca,etc. Any pet will get you a chance at winning. But you have to post a picture and at least tell the pet's name.

Can also be any item or hobby. Fishing pole, gun, car or truck, model airplane,camera, woodworking, jig molding, plastic bait pouring, photography,whatever....anything, as long as its important to you.

Must post a picture, brief description, and choose a number between 1-500.

The winner will receive my favorite shakey head setup. This includes a new 4 pack of black 1/8oz Strikezone Lures Shake Up Head(light hook) jig heads and a new pack of Zoom Swamp Crawlers(25pk) in Green Pumpkin.

NEW PRIZE: The winner will also receive (2) 1/2oz custom football head jigs with Gamakatsu hooks in "Hawg Hunter" color. These are premium jigs. Would easily fetch $5 each in stores.


Contest will end February 1, 2011

Disclaimer: All things can change because(thanks Jim)

This is Coop, my Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix. He loves going fishing with me, but all the guys at the boat ramp laugh at me when I tell him to get in the boat.

I live in a ZOO! Dog, Cats, and all my Snakes, and Tortoises. ZOO I tell you!

First....My "Big Sweety". This is Holly Berry. (Santa brought her as a pup about 7 yrs ago) She follows me everywhere and loves me more than anyone else does.

Here she is again with her cousin....a 170 lb English Mastiff named Dufus. My sister travels a bit and Dufus comes to visit several times a year.

Next...my daughter's cats. Black Cat is Spooky Blue, Grey cat, now a little over a year old is Willow. I don't really have anything to do with these things. Like I said...my daughters.

I'll go with 317.

This is Bishop, the Australian Shepherd. He loves going in the woods and being around water. He likes to wade out in the water and "throw" the water with his snout. He also tries to bite it :lol:

He doesn't know he was bred for herding sheep, not tracking deer.

This is Hershey. I have had her since she was 6 weeks old and she is now 13 and has been around for more than half of my life. She has bad hips and doesn't move like she used to, but she is still a great dog.

For me 399....

Here are some pictures of my wieners :LOL2: . The smaller multi-colored one was taken from an abusive home. Her name is Dixie. She loves just to be chill and hang out and she loves the beach.

The longer wiener is named Eva, she has vision problems and barks at anyone she doesnt recognize by smell. Once she gets to know you then she is the sweetest dog I have ever had. She is rowdy and is running non-stop but never tires. I love my dogs but this breed is something else, very demanding to say the least. I think I may get a lab next time, but I still love when you walk in the door and those little dogs act like there is no one else in the world.

Here is my Chocolate Lab Buddy. I picked him out of a litter because he was the runt and the calmest little puppy! I bought him home on my shoulder and he has been by my side since. He just turned three years old Dec. 29th. He LOVES to go fishing with me. I love this dog:
