Thank you for the offer, I just placed an order. I just got a new
digital camera for Christmas, so I hope I'll be on your braggin' board soon.

Plenty of room on our Braggin' Board for new photos. We get several each
month showing fish caught with Secret Weapons, and our practice from the
beginning has been to send a free lure to each person whose photo makes it
onto the board.

Just remember to drop that camera in your pocket as you leave for the lake,
Henry.... I seem to always be forgetting mine on days when I catch good
fish. Of course, I remember it on the other trips, but all I end up with are
photos (taken by Charles) of me climbing trees to retrieve lures.

So just when does the SW spamming stop?

I think it's a good idea that message boards and newsgroups be free of
commercialism. But it's not necessary for 100% rigidity; there can be a
little bending and flexing. I think an occasional announcement or special
offer, such as the one in this thread, is OK, as long as it's done by a
REGULAR, CONTRIBUTING MEMBER of the group.

Besides, those who voice their sincere complaints about it will help to keep
such activity in check.

Ya know , I have really really tried to be quiet in regards to this and most
of the threads lately. But there appears to
be some on this NG that jest don't know when to shut the
F%$ck up!

Which is one of the main reasons I don't contribute much here anymore.
To: the folks at Secret Weapons, Thanks for the offer. Wish I could take you
up on it. Joe, you know how much I love to throw a spinnerbait. Especially a
S/W! But you also know that I will probably not have much use for them in
the near future.

To those of you who jest can't seem to accept a gracious
offer like that of S/W jeez I'm soooooooo sorry! And **** off. S/W's offer
was in no way couched like some of the others I have read in the past. I
personally don't consider their offer to be spam.

Wish I I could hang around here to really raise some hell.
But it seems that I will be spending the next 6 months in merry ole London.
Wish I could ask that you all play nice
but I know that is not in the forecast.

I concur, aggrogant lot, the most of the them. You have to be in the in
crowd to be accepted, I guess. We have "bassholes" locally too.No wonder
some people talk down bassers...

digital camera for Christmas, so I hope I'll be on your braggin' board
soon.


Received my lures today, I have to say I expected it to take longer,
since I ordered on a holiday weekend. This is my first real look at
them, and I'm impressed with the quality. I am usually wary of product
photos, knowing how easy it is to touch one up, and knowing that most
put special care into the one bait that gets shown, but except for the
reflected "sunset on the lake" on the blades, mine look every bit as
good as the one pictured. I intend to see that refection soon, though.

THANKS!
