    Posted: 20 Feb 2016 at 1:43pm
It's time to get a fundraiser happening to help cover the costs of keeping the forum running.

If you'd like to to help us out by donating some lures towards this years prize pack please send them to the address below.

Tony Mayfield
PO Box 5364
Torquay QLD 4655

The annual prize pack has been a huge help in this regard in previous years. We skipped a year last year so that the funds could go towards assisting Fitzy to cover the cost of running the expo, although the bills keep coming in so I figured I'd better get cracking!

Splitting the prizes into several categories seemed popular last year, so I'm open to doing the same this year if any wish to donate collectable items for a seperate prize pack from the LureLovers Lure Makers pack.

I'd also welcome assistance with selling tickets at the expo, if any of our members could help out with that please give me a shout. Smile

Cheers, Tony

For the love of Fishing Lures.

Tony....I will get a few lures to you prior to expo.
If I dont have a stall this year (unsure) then i would be happy help to sell a few tickets at expo.

Last years raffle was a great success thanks to many members on here donating lures and memorabillia,
and thanks to those that dug deep and purchased tickets.
And of course thanks to yourself Tony Clap for allowing the raffle to be used to raise funds towards the expo....I know Fitzy was very humbled by the generosity of all involved.
Im sure you will get a great response towards this years raffle, as everyone on here realises that a lot goes on behnd the scenes to keep this Forum running...and its very much appreciated!
SO! come on guys.....lets get this started.

Hi Dave

Any time prior to the expo, although to allow time to get them organised and included in photo's prior to the event, sooner would make life a lot easier. Thumbs Up

Hello Tony, Just saw the post, haven't been on it in awhile.
I think I can find a few in that messy shop of mine if I move
enough junk. You mates have been so kind to me, I could not help out.

Tony , I went to windows 10 and have been having problems posting pictures.
I resize them and do everything the way before, but when the picture comes up and I click ok, it says there is an error.  I tried several times with no luck.

Maybe you can help me on this.

What date is the dead line for the expo?

Thanks Mate,
Verlon

Hi Verlon, I hope all is well.

The expo is in July. Wish I could drop over and help clean up the shed Big smile

Re the issue with images, I just tested using Microsoft Edge (new browser in windows 10) and also received the error. I hadn't noticed this before as it hasn't been mentioned and I don't use Microsoft's browser anymore, it's too problematic.

I'll have to look at coding around the problem in ms Edge, although in the interim I would suggest the easiest way to solve the issue is to use another browser such as Mozilla Firefox or Google chrome - personally I prefer Firefox.

Firefox; https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/?v=b
Chrome; https://www.google.com/chrome/index.html


Cheers, Tony

For the love of Fishing Lures.

Thanks Tony for your help.
These are not much, but hope they will help.
A couple of my friend Gerald's spinner baits.
Chris Sinclair will probably want the thin shad.
Will try to get them in the mail tomorrow.

coming soon to your mail box fore the prize pack Tony.

Two Lures made off a piece off Bog Oak that is around 2 to 3000 years old (maybe more. only a Carbon 14 test can tell that) 
It was found in a Peat Bog 3 km. from were I live.
Time and the special environment in the ground, have made the wood very dark
The Lures is raw Wood as the Clear cote would hide the nice dark grain in it.
SO ONLY MADE TO LOOK PRETTY NOT FISH WITH Smile
The stands are the off cuts and clear coted.
Two Spoons model AL-G. 18gr. Left is 1mm. Nickel Silver front and 0,5mm. Copper Soldered together
Right is 1,5mm. Brass silvered on the back
