Are these giveaways becoming as rare as an honest politician or is it just me?

They did two on day last week but early AM and late PM. Just have to be lucky and be around when it gets posted. I have not made it in one yet this year. Seem like I go to the outhouse and I missed it.  ;D

I'd have to look at my comment history, but I think I made 2 or 3 last year.  It really is a matter of either luck or obsessive checking.  I know it does not take long to reach 50 entries once a giveaway goes live, though.

Also, bullpine... I have yet to meet an honest politician.   ;D

I actually won once. It was awesome. Free gear is the best.

Thought I was going to make it into last giveaway but before I could hit post it closed.  Hopefully someday I'll get in one.

X2 I think it's nice that the sponsors are willing to donate in order to make them possible.

last week there were actually 3! you really have to be obsessive about checking. you have no more than 15 minutes to get in....of you're lucky. I checked one day all morning. had to go to the bathroom and then decided to wash up. came back and it was posted and closed!

At the top of the "general ice fishing chit chat", the sticky at the top. It says closed now but will say open when they are taking contestants.

I seem to be at work or away from the computer at the wrong time this year! I have won one in the past, so no complaints here!! I just think it's hilarious the people keep entering for hours after it's closed!!  ;D
