Before life turned a little surreal on me, I was running a contest to give away an AEG Fish Bums video or a copy of Kerplunk by Patrick McManus.
I finally freed up a few minutes to fire up the random.org random number generator (which generates truly random numbers based on atmospheric noise), and who should win but… Salty (of BWTF fame).
To be blunt, his winning comment lacked a little of the Pulitzer-esque gravitas we’ve come to associate with him on the BWTF blog, but damnit, numbers don’t lie. He said:
always reel right; dominant hand
So Salty — despite your slacker-level effort — it’s your choice: AEG Fish Bums 1: Mongolia DVD or Kerplunk by Patrick McManus?
Whichever one you don’t choose will be summarily awarded to the commenter whose post I deem most worthy.

Hear ye! Hear ye!
Salty is hereby banned from all future UWN contests. Day Tripper(Quote)
I’m sure I was a mere solar flare away from winning this myself. razmaspaz(Quote)
hmmmm…something rotten in the state of denmark. Fishing Jones won the comment race & bumper sticker over on BWTF…now BWTF is winning books over here on the Underground Network?
certainly some sort of of antitrust laws are being violated
thank heavens! would hate to think our little fishing blogging world was squeaky clean. CONGRATS SALTY. fly fish chick(Quote)
Raz: just think – the hole in the ozone layer could have cost you the win…
FFC: We run a clean contest here, unlike those rats at BWTF… Tom Chandler(Quote)
“thank heavens! would hate to think our little fishing blogging world was squeaky clean. CONGRATS SALTY.”
He won my book giveaway, too.
I can hear the conspiracy theorists gathering now. Day Tripper(Quote)
Yeah, but what could Salty possibly offer as a kickback to win? Tom Chandler(Quote)
hmmm, I have some “If The Trout Are Lost, Smash The State” bumper stickers, we’ve got some Buster swag in the works too. Plus, I could always give you the grand prize and call you an uppity mountain hippy Salty(Quote)
listen here Salty. I’ve already been swept up in that whole uppity mountain hippy deal and while I am proud to be a part of it, I’m looking for something new
where’s my BWTF tank top dammit?
(just kidding! that was pretend anger…xxoo)
but I want my damn tank top. fly fish chick(Quote)
Salty: BWTF gear? Scheez, don’t tell me you guys are coming out with your own line of fly rods too… Tom Chandler(Quote)
right now we have stickers, bottle openers, and t-shirts in the works. Along with a BWTF limited edition Excursion that we partnered with Ford to design. Our main contribution to the vehicle so far is a bugling elk with flame jobbed antlers. That is airbrushed on the hood. Under the hood we’re planning on having Mingo’s Gal airbrushed on. Right now we’re in a fist fight over the paint scheme for the sides. I’m holding out for the flaming skull warrior.
Also we are doing a short production run of BWTF thong panties and pasties, for Fly Fish Chick.
I wasn’t supposed to say that Salty(Quote)
