WL.com wins NOWA 3rd Place Video Contest

Post by Mike Carey » Tue May 15, 2012 7:03 pm

I'm very excited to share that one of our videos from last year, the Potholes Air Boat Bass video with guide Shelby Ross, won 3rd place in the Northwest Outdoor Writers Association yearly Excellence in Craft Contest. First and Second prizes both went to outdoor writer Gary Lewis, who makes DVDs with a professional staff of video producers, so that made me feel pretty good about being mentioned in the same company.

Congratulations! Great job on all the videos you guys put out and that one was a great feature. I'm sure a lot of time goes into each one and a lot of unmentioned support. Much appreciated.

Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

Well deserved! Good video to win it with too-- I bet you getting splashed had the judges laughing! I think the most flattering thing here is now all your videos are typcially that high of quality production. So you could have taken top 3 with a lot of different ones. No easy feat!
