Winners of the Thanksgiving Jig Giveaway:

LeanderLuvs2Fish (jigs shipped)
Pintail711 (jigs shipped)
Jay Brown (jigs unclaimed, awarded to consolation winner/shipped)
dkestes (jigs shipped)
Dutch1947 (jigs shipped)
jasoniam (jigs shipped)

They won 5 each of this pattern:


Winners:
If you're a winner, I've private messaged you already and just need an address to send your jigs. Everyone has a week to get your address in. If you don't send your address within a week, we'll move onto the consolation names I drew. ETXCrappie was first consolation and Fooshman was second. I can't imagine more than two people not claiming their prize, but if that happens, we'll draw more names.

Everyone Else:
The other thread was closed because people were still trying to enter the Thanksgiving giveaway and already trying to enter the Christmas giveaway. I'll host a Christmas giveaway for sure and maybe a New Years giveaway. You'll only be able to enter those in their respective threads (not yet posted). The Christmas entry will be 12/20-12/24, if all goes as planned. Didn't anticipate that many people (109 TFFers) entering so maybe we'll give out more winners for Christmas... wink Really hated closing that other thread, especially with all the nice words spoken on my jigs, but it was about to get messy (confusing) and closing the thread seemed best.


Thanksgiving Giveaway Details:
109 TFFers entered this giveaway
8th and 16th oz were jig sizes
Close to 50% of the crowd liked 8th oz jigs for wintertime and 50% liked 16th
Patterns chosen for their colors based on a Thanksgiving color scheme
6 total winners were drawn
60+ jigs given out (some not pictured below)



Jig Recipes:

"Honey Bee"
Head: Custom "Yellow Tang Pearl" (Double yellow and pearl pigmentation)
Body: Yellow and Brown chenille
Tail: Yellow (2-4 feathers) and Sculpin Olive (1-2 feathers)



"Goldfish"
Head: Blaze Orange with Yellow accent
Body: Fluorescent Fire Orange chenille
Tail: Yellow (3-5 feathers) hackle with Orange/Yellow flash

Jig crafters: please feel free to contact me regarding the particulars with these recipes...



Prize Packs:



Thanks again for making this such a great giveaway. If you didn't win this time, you can try again soon. No repeat winners means the chances to win will only get better.

I truly appreciate the kind words from everyone and look forward to the Christmas giveaway.

You ran a very good contest. First and foremost, I think you had such a great response due to the high quality of the jig prizes you were offering to all TFF members.
Secondly, the rules you set were very clear to understand. I sincerely hope those who were chosen will respond to your request, I know the holidays can be a hectic time. If not, the fact you anticipated and drew consolation names just verifies how well you anticipated all possible outcomes.

Cant wait until the next drawing because those are some first class jigs you have made.
Thanks for giving us all something fun and positive to talk about on the TFF.

Michael

I appreciate you taking the time to state your observations and send compliments! I've built websites the better part of a decade and probably hosted 750-1000 various giveaways. Experience taught me to stop generalizing statements and get straight to the point.

As for the quality of my jigs, I blame that on Jigum and Griff, but that's another story. smile

Just an update for everyone that entered - I'm still waiting for the other winners to read their private messages. I'll keep this thread updated.

Still no word from 4 of the 6 winners? hmmm Hopefully they're just traveling and will soon see this thread or my private messages. Jigs have been packed up since Wednesday.

If we don't hear from anyone by Thursday morning, I'll draw more names. Sure would hate for anyone to realize they won this prize too late. If anyone knows any of the remaining/unclaimed winners, please give them a call?

Nice!

Only 2 winners that haven't claimed their prizes. LeanderLuvs2Fish just sent his address.

If anyone knows Pintail711 or Jay Brown, please tell them to contact me before Thursday morning.

Congrats LeanderLuvs2Fish!
