I am part of a not for profit that manufactures and distibutes adaptive fishing gear for physically challenged folks. We do all the work for free and have personally donated a lot of time and money to get this going. You can see us at Fishing Abilities, Inc. - We currently have two products out, an electric reel for a one armed fisherman, it has been available since May 1, and is now in 10 states, Canada, and Australia. We have had several folks cry when they caught their first fish with it because they thought they would no longer be able to fish again, our other product is "Dan's Fishing System" aka "the Whammer Slammer", which lets me fish, as I am a quadriplegic & have to operate everything with my head.

Anyhow, we are entered in a local contest against other not for profits, the prize being $5000 of free marketing, think how many people we could help if more folks knew about us! VOTE FOR US HERE! - you can vote once a day until the contest is over.

Thanks in advance,
Dan, aka dbassman55

P.S. we are field testing a Great Lakes reel, an ocean reel, and a spinning reel, all for one armed fishermen and women--

Please Help Us Help Others By By Voting!!
