SUPER BIG BASS DRAWINGS at LEADERS MARINE!

Polaris Quad Winners on Hand!

Leaders Marine in Kalamazoo again hosted the Super Big Bass drawing for 2007. Dozens of NBAA anglers came out to this once a year special event to sign up for the 2008 season and to see first hand what’s new. On hand for this event were pro-staff members from Fish Hedz, WaveSpin reels, DJ’s Custom Rods, Anglers Advantage Insurance, Gamma Line, Poor Boys Baits, and Please Release Me.

Drawings were done through out the day and it seemed like everyone who showed up won a prize. Some of the great prizes that were giving away from our special drawings and sponsor pro-staff members included Gamma Line, Yamaha Oil, WaveSpin Reels, DJ’s Custom Ice Rod, Auto Value products, Skeeter Hats, Extreme Tackle, Please Release Me, Minn Kota Trolling Motors/chargers and much more.

After the sponsor drawings it was time for the big draw, the reason why everyone was at Leaders Marine. Who would be the 2007 Super Big Bass Grand Prize Winner of the new Polaris Quad? The entries were mixed up and the winner was drawn, David McGlaughlin and David McGlaughlin II were the lucky winners of the Super Big Bass Grand Prize for 2007. David and his son fish in Greg Adams division 60 near Fenton, Michigan and as fate would have it Dave and his other son Andrew were on hand for this special event and got a close up look at their new quad.

This was a great kick off to our show season and we appreciate all of the support from Leaders Marine. Leaders Marine has some fantastic deals on Skeeter boats; please call for all the details.
