I would love to win one of these!! I deserved to win because I didn’t get to go fishing this year. I love fishing and I’m sure it will help me catch that big one. … or two !!!

Hello all, I'm new to the forum but I have been lurking in the weeds here for years. I deserve to win one of these because I broke my spool at the sandheads fishing last week, of coarse it wasn't my fault because I wasn't driving the boat but we hit a crab line near the green can, snagged it bad, spent a half hour trying to save the gear which was not very successful - lost a ball, clip , flasher and a teaser head. Anyways after re rigging it all I found the downrigger didn't work very well either, it was hardly going down and kind of grinding on the way up after checking it I found the spool was warped and cracked . Anyways I'm done fishing for the year but I do need a new spool. It was a pretty good year of fishing and now its time to fix things and get ready for next year. Here's a funny pic for you thirsty guys hahaha.

I want one not because I fish all the time and wear out my gear, but because the silver will match my boat better, and maybe I can tie a big hook or magnet to my down rigger line and go hunting for treasure. Or maybe I can hook a big chunk of bait to it and start sport fishing for sharks. The possibilities are endless!

 

[Fisher_dude]

I want one because I have a problem. And that problem is me buying fishing or boat stuff. My wife wants me to finish renovating the bathroom downstairs and I’m not supposed to buy any more fishing gear until it’s done. But, if I “win” something, it’s a loophole in the matrix.

Here's three reason's why I deserve these things. A wise man once said to me, "if you haven't busted a few spools before, you haven't even started fishing yet."

 

[Tomic Slayer]

How many warped and cracked spools have ruined a day of fishing for my family. Well to many to count for me.

People who may deny the fact that these are for them, well maybe it’s time to get out from behind your screens and go use your fishing equipment.

Is this for a set? Or just a single spool? I hope it’s a set

I deserve and need/want the new spool because my inner self will be spurred to get those faster gucci downriggers!!

If you ain't Gucci, are you really living?

I believe you can only enter once. I could be wrong though.

Maybe this is my second entry

Thanksgiving is coming up quick!

Who wants to win a pair of SS downrigger spools?! Yes a pair!

 

[JWS]

I need these to go along with the 2106’s I’m upgrading to. I’m tired of trying to fish entrance in the winter knowing damn well I’m actually nowhere near the fish.

Here’s a picture of an orca, right in Silva bay, completely irrelevant to my post!

 

[Capt_Ed]

Well in the original post im supposed to write why i deserve or need these spools. Well honestly i dont think any of us deserve them but if i was to be chosen i would hope that it would be because i would gift them to one of my fellow Telegraph Cove fisherman. We all troll for halibut there quite deep the one fellow deeper than most. Every year or two he has to get the spools replaced on his 2106 because of cracking. Ive yet to crack mine but i would like to win to gift them out. Pretty sure more guys there would buy more from Ship Happens as im sure these are going to be a game changer product.

 

[Tightlines22]

Well I’ve had great luck fishing the past month like most others. I’d love to have some good luck and win these.

Last week I was heading to Sandheads. Hit a huge wave and out popped the side glass on the hardtop of my Campion 672. Then while fishing without a window my Scotty 2106 wouldn’t let line out. Bent drum so dropped it off at Berrys Bait. Then back home to Ladner I stop for groceries at Freshco. An announcement on the PA “would the owner of a black Tacoma please see the front desk”. Turns out minutes after being in the store a woman side swiped my truck in the parking lot! Luckily witnesses so more of a bother now.

Just had my first spool crack this summer. If I win the pair I'll use one and donate the other to the Sidney Anglers derby in March and auction off with all the proceeds going to salmon enhancement.

FYI, cracked it by finding a new pinnacle in Barclay Sound.

Whereabouts did you manage to find the new pinnacle?

Hey Brian, if you win or not, we can set aside a spool or 2 for the Sidney Angler Derby. That way you can have a pair on your boat!

It's code for boat driver to watch the plotter and depth sounder when fishing a new location.

 

[seachicken]

I need these because you guys are making me paranoid about cracking my spools, as if there's not enough to worry about on a boat. And I'm feeling sorry for myself because the boat is out of commission for such a nice long weekend and it would be great to get out to cabin.

Thanks for running a great contest. Finally got off my wallet and became a member. Didn’t want the assassin to take me out, he’s been riding me about stepping up.

I mentioned the forum and all you guys at 9 minutes of this video. Really appreciate all of you in helping feed the family and feed my stoke.

Would love to run the spools and promote them. I have plans to do a Scotty dr video on my other channel. I think they are one of Canada’s best companies and should partner with @ship happens and offer his spool as an upgrade.
