For those of you who are members in YakSocial, you’ve probably seen the pictures of these crazy looking lures in the photo gallery. What you may not have known is that one lucky winner could actually own one of these beautiful pieces of art.
On May 10th 2010 there will be an eBay auction for 10days and the winner will get a lure, 3days2nights VIP trip to the Devils River to fly fish with Gerald Bailey (Orvis Pro Guide), enjoy the cooking of a 5star chief, stay in the Cabin at Dolan Fall Preserve, and other goodies supplied by sponsors. The money will go to Nature Conservancy of Texas.
A little bit about these lures.
It started out for fun, but turned out to be a 14month conquest to raise money for the Nature Conservancy of Texas to help keep the rivers and lake around the world clean and pure. The lures are Rapala display lures 20" fiberglass and were painted by the best Hot Rod painters in the country:
- Mike Dusold - Desould Designs: World Class car & Bike builder, Biker Build Off Discovery Channel, Art in Metal…etc
- The Mad One of Ca. - painter for Bold Coddington
- Joe Martin - Martin Brothers
- Gary Queen - Other Side Kustoms Dallas
- Rick Fearless – Strokers Dallas
- BoneDaddy G.T.H. Studios
- Chad of Levisville
- Just to name a few
Each one is signed and numbered and in Custom Built boxes by R&C in Dallas.
