The Year Isn’t Over Yet and Neither is Your Chance to WIN!!

Jonathon Marshall — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 04:54:53 +0000

Didn’t win any free fishing gear this holiday season? Well you’ve still got until January 1st to win something in our final two contests of the year! I’m pretty sure we doubled our yearly giveaways in December alone!

How about a complete set of premium fishing weights from Water Gremlin! All you have to do is register for our forums and post a member introduction before 2012!

Maybe forums aren’t you’re thing but you love those ‘guess how many’ contests. Well check out our final Christmas contest where you could win some sweet lures by guessing how many fishing lures Clive used to decorated his Christmas tree.

And just in case that wasn’t enough I’m already planning the first contest of 2012 where you could win a prize pack of Kiwi Camp Dry products like the Performance Fabric Protector that I reviewed earlier this year.

Fishing Fury 2011 Final Christmas Giveaway!

Clive Mathias — Mon, 26 Dec 2011 01:19:43 +0000

Our last contest isn’t over yet, but here is the final Christmas giveaway we’ll feature this year. Somebody thought it would be a good idea to give away one of my favorite lures as a prize! There may have been beer involved, but I agreed! This contest is a little bit different then our previous giveaways, this time you will need to guess how many lures are on and under the Fury Christmas tree! The tree features some new lures, and some of my very own used lures, including some that have caught many of my biggest fish! There is even an assortment big pike and muskie lures!

The rules are simple, each person has one guess, and in the event that the same number is picked twice, only the first person that picked it will be counted. There will be only one (1) winner. You must comment on this post with your guess, or comment on our Facebook page under the status update about this contest. If no one guesses the the exact amount, the substitute prize for the closest guess is one of the greatest lures ever made, a brand new Mepps Musky Killer (yellow and black) from one of my all time favorite fishing companies, Brecks.

Guess how many lures for your chance to win!

This contest will run until the final minute of 2011 (EST) and the winner will be provided with list of the lures shortly after!

Christmas is almost here, and here is another chance at a fishing freebie! You may remember our quick review for Lunker Tools earlier this year and I’m happy to say the tools have stood up against all sorts of unfriendly Fury tests, including 10 saltwater soaked days in the Virgin Islands. These tools will come in handy for any fisherman, and they look pretty good too! I’ve got curved hemostats, straight hemostats, scissor/clamps, snips, utility scissors and more to give away to two lucky winners. You know the drill, leave a comment below to be eligible to win. Tune in this weekend when we randomly select a winner!

A big thank you to the good folks at Lunker Tools!

Contest ends December 27th 2011.

If you fish in the winter, a good pair of gloves are a must. Ive been using Glacier Gloves (model 821BK) for about a year now and when the weather is cold, I don’t leave home without them. Not only do I use them when I fish, they have become my daily winter gloves!

Cost $40 USD

Dave Mercer’s 135 Secrets Fish Don’t Want You To Know

Jonathon Marshall — Mon, 13 Dec 2010 00:19:49 +0000

Still looking for gift ideas for your favorite fisherman? Or maybe a gift for yourself? Check out the Facts Of Fishing: 135 Secrets Fish Don’t Want You To Know book by our good chum Dave Mercer.

I checked out this book when I was out shopping this afternoon at chapters. It’s great, well illustrated, and you can just open it anywhere and start reading some great fishing tips! Best of all this book is on sale at chapters for less than 12 bucks! The small form factor makes it great for stocking stuffers too. I know I would be very happy to find one in my stocking this christmas.

Gifts For The Bird Hunter – Season Shot The Flavoured Ammo

Jonathon Marshall — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 21:30:15 +0000

Season Shot is the “ammo with flavour.” This ammunition is made from tightly packed seasoning bound by a fully biodegradable food product. You actually shoot the seasoning right into the bird with deadly impact and flavouring, or “shoots, kills, seasons” as they say. The seasoning pellets, which replace the traditional metal pellets, actually melt into the meat flavouring the bird from the inside so you don’t have to pick them out when cleaning your birds.

* Ok, this product isn’t actually available for this christmas season and the prices haven’t been set yet either. Still it would make a novel gift for the bird hunter. But hopefully they’ll be out next year, so keep them tucked away in your christmas notes for next year.

Fishing Gift Ideas 2010 – Digital Cameras!

Clive Mathias — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 00:56:08 +0000

Every fisherman should have a decent camera to capture their catches. There are tons of great cameras out there, but here are two of my top picks for fishermen.

Canon D10 – approximately $260

This camera has been around for a couple of years, so the price is now pretty reasonable for what you get. While its not new, it has received excellent reviews from just about every major digital camera site. It shoots stills at a solid 12 mega pixels and captures video at 640×480 – but best of all – it does this underwater too!

Samsung ST500 – approximately $250

Samsung has several offerings with the front and back facing screens (Dual LCD). If you have ever fished alone and tried to photograph yourself with your catch, you know just how valuable this camera could be. It shoots stills at 14 mega pixels and captures video at 720p HD.
