Today’s giveaway will be an item we never featured on the blog before. But before I get to that, lets pick a winner of that fancy $500 Lamiglas Infinity stick, shall we?

We put all the entries into the random number generator and it spit out number  which corresponds with a fellow whose screen name is jerryboy and email address is JERRRYBOY@OPTONLINE.NET

Congrats dude, you know the deal, you got five days to contact us at info@surfcastersjournal.com or you forfeit the rod. Not that I couldn’t have kept it but seriously how many rods do I need with this bad elbow? I see a little Zebco spinner in my future..lol

Ok, on to othere interesting things. Today’s blog giveaway is a courtesy of our sponsors from the Fisherman Headquarters in Ship Bottom, NJ. You can visit them at http://www.fishermansheadquarters.com/

Why are these pliers different? Well, for one thing from what I can gather Fisherman’s Headquarters is the only place that has these Bull Nose aluminum pliers. The one weakness of  long nose pliers is that they are a little weak. There is no secret there. On a really cheap pair  the pliers will twist and bend when removing a stubbornly embedded hook (hopefully not from your buddy’s ass..although you can expect a decent amount of twerking if that happens).

I like the way they fit in my hand, and I particularly like the rubber grip. From what I have been told they are built to last with a little maintenance. Obviously, being winter and all we did not get to actually use them. The Fisherman Headquarters guys will have some at NJ Surf Day in few weeks so you can check out in person.

Here is a full description

“Looking for a pair of fishing pliers designed for fishermen? Take a look at these bull nose fishing pliers. These pliers are precision CNC machined from heat treated aircraft aluminum. They are lightweight very strong and anodized (two-tone: half black, half silver) for corrosion resistance. These fishing pliers feature unique rubberized ergonomic handles for a solid comfortable grip even when wet. The pliers are spring loaded for easy quick action use. They also have replaceable tungsten carbide side-cutters that easily cut braided and monofilament line. Each handle arm has a hole for an easy and secure lanyard attachment.

These fishing pliers are made for saltwater fishing by an experienced award winning manufacture (who makes pliers for numerous major brand names in the fishing industry). They are about 7″ long and weight in at 5ozs. They are not the best fishing pliers for small freshwater species. However, they are exception for saltwater gamefish like striped bass and bluefish as well as pelagic species. These pliers feature texturized and tempered (hardened) carbon steel jaws for powerful gripping of hooks. Please note the jaw material is super strong however, with no maintenance, heavy use and exposure to saltwater the jaws will develop rust. To maintain, wash off and occasionally wipe down with a light oil. These pliers will offer great performance for many years. They out perform pliers twice their price!

Have you ever tweaked your pliers out of alignment when unhooking a fish? Common problem with most aluminum needle nose pliers. Not with these bull nose pliers! They are absolutely fantastic for unhooking quality gamefish.”

    I’ve grown up going to my aunt and uncles houses in ship bottom and Harvey cedars. I’ve been to fish head plenty of times over the years and they are a bunch of good ppl there with young guys which I like to see. I’m a young guy and it seems there’s not many of us out there. Good ppl even if there eels are small. Lol
