Berleyguts Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 So, Shimano Australia had a Facebook competition where they asked us to post a fishing selfie and they’d award a prize pack to the best 10. I got a message to get my details and said they’ll send me a package. 😎 I don’t suppose it will include a Stella…? 🤷♂️😂 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingie chaser Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Well done Baz, I saw your 2 pics, the snapper & the kingie. Hopefully it's someone worth while & not just a stubble holder & bumper sticker. Still something is better than nothing right 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonD Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Congrats, we've had a few similar wins, often a Shimano hat, dvd's and a small reel. Had a few where we had won better prizes by entering magazine comps but many of those didn't cough up the goods!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was tricky taking that - the boat was really bouncing around that day! 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once won a subscription prize from Fishing World - a week on Lord Howe Island with 4 days gamefishing. I went on that trip 2 weeks before my wedding. My fiancé/wife didn’t want to go. That was the last serious fishing trip I had - 31 years ago! 🤷♂️😂😂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t buy the Outlaw until Jan 2014 and didn’t move to the Bay until March 2017. Metadata says 20 March 2019. But, yes, it’s been a long time between trips. I think I’ve put the boat in 3 times since Covid hit. 🤷♂️Moving house in 2 weeks and hope things settle down then and I’ll be up for a Wednesday or Thursday fish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berleyguts Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Well, the dog just went nuts at the door and I opened it for the delivery driver and was surprised to see two reasonably sized boxes. It took me a while to realise they were from Shimano. My hopes went up… what could be in such large boxes? A full suite of Stellas? Or Tiagras? Reality kicked in, however, when I lifted the boxes and realised they were quite light. Upon opening, I discovered they were packed with lots of air bags… unnecessary in my opinion but they will come in handy as I pack fragile items for our move in a couple of weeks. As I expected, I won some Shimano promotional gear: sticker, bottle opener, cap, neck shade combo thingie, and a gear bag. Still, I’m happy with that and I’m glad they came.

Better than a poke in the eye with a blunt stick Baz 😉 Just getting picked was a prize in itself 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
