    Hey everyone!

    As a token of appreciation, Lip Ripper Tackle is donating two, 50 jig kits to CFF as Christmas auction items!

    This is a joint endeavour between CFF and Lip Ripper Tackle. These kits are being auctioned of to the highest bidder, with the proceeds going towards supporting CFF and its operating costs. Ernie will give more details on how the bidding System will work...

    Here is my end of it, there will be two kits, and both will be fully customized kits. Meaning, the winner chooses the color, style, and size of the jigs...

    -50 jigs
    - Walleye or round head style with sickle hooks (any combination)
    - any combination of weights between 1/16 and 3/8oz
    - any available colors in stock (will provide a list)
    - must be 5 jigs of each color (size/style can be different)

    Let's have some fun with this and support CFF!!!

    Well that is a very generous gesture Patty! Thank you!

    So here's how we'll do this...

    Let's keep it simple. First bid is a minimum of $15.

    Bids increase in increments of $5.

    Members may bid as often as they want.

    Members may state if they want 1 or 2 kits. (Bid will be 2x the bid)

    Bidding closes 11:59 December 18 2015. (Don't wait till the last minute to bid) ;)

    Action is open to bids now!

    Good luck! Thank you to every one that bids on this! Your contribution is appreciated. It's actions like this that keep our forum ad-free, fast loading, and secure.

    Just wanted to say that these jigs are very good quality. I fished them this fall in the same spots as other brands. The other brands paint chipped boucing them on the rocks where Patty's did not. If I didn't have a bunch of these already I'd be bidding already

    I just picked up a pile of jigs from Patty yesterday. Obviously haven't had a chance to fish them yet, but he did some awesome work mixing custom colours!

    The way I see it ZDiamonds

    Kit#1: $40

    Kit #2 $30

    These are the current high bids. If you want to keep your bid $35 would only be high enough for kit #2.

    The bidding is heating up:

    * GreenbacksOnIce - $40 for one kit
    * Zdiamonds - $35 for one kit

    I wonder if we'll surpass $50 per kit by the time the bidding is all done.
