Donation if you desire- Kids fishing day 2021

I am hosting a kids fishing day for about 50 kids on Take a Kid Fishing Weekend on my home lake. Our Lake Association is donating all the food and drink for the event.
If anyone has any new lures etc or wants to donate a rod or reel, I would be grateful for helping us give out some prizes to the kids.
I would love to take anything you have off your hands for you.
if you need me to pay shipping, I will.

Why am I doing this? My son passed away several years ago and I donated a rod each year to the Big Brother-Big Sister Event that James put on in Red Wing. I want to have a small memorial in his name continue.

Can you PM the dates and shipping details or post them? I’d like to send some things down.

Where are we sending stuff? I have some new Rapala cranks I could part with. Some bass plastics and Texas rigging stuff too. Good things to start bass fishing with.

I also have plenty of new packaged lures I could part with.

Looking to help out. PM me also..thanks.

Are you looking for only summer fishing stuff or just any fishing stuff? I could make an ice rod to donate. When is the event?

pm sent

Please pm shipping details and date when you’d need donations by. Most my stuff is ice gear but I’d be willing to buy some summer gear and have it shipped directly to you.

Those pics bring back some good memories for sure. What year was that one? Let me know what you need.

The first event I went to was 2005 and I believe thru 2008.
That was a good time and if we ever do it again , I would help out on shore.

It was great meeting up with you last night fishinfool. I hope your event goes well. The kids are very lucky that you are doing such a great thing for them. Your son would be proud.

Just saw this post, are you still excepting donations? If so, can you send me information.
