Geeze Reece, a couple weeks back on and you are up to your trouble making ways again.
 
Get this through your thick skull, I am not going to go to the expense and time involved if a store cannot organise such an event for their own benefit.  I believe that my personal time and effort is worth more than that. 
I will do a jig presentation to any store or club that will put in some honest effort to attract interested jiggers.  I have gone as far south as Christchurch and up north to Keri Keri next week AT MY OWN EXPENSE to try and educate jiggers in this artform and to attract business for retailers. 
 
I'm not hard to find, if somebody wants to organise such an event that fits in with my schedule and makes the effort to attract interested numbers, I'm generally happy to oblige.  But my time and effort is valuable to me and although it's free, it has to be earned.
 
Since the Wellington stores are not interested, why don't YOU put on such an event?  Hire a hall.  Advertise on radio, magazines, newspapers.  Put on the free drinks, food, giveaways.  If you think your community is missing out, YOU ORGANISE IT!  If you want me to present it, I will turn up. 
Don't ever accuse me of not caring or doing anything for this fishing community, especially since you have done nothing yourself! 
 
All you ever do is **** stir and disrespect.  Since when have you ever supported anything that I say or sell?
 
Sheesh!
 
give it death!

Clown...Simple question to start with and a bit of piss taking with my friend Richy and you take offence...(WHY?) It wasn't pointed at you? Again I asked you a simple QUESTIConfusedN??
 
The above statements show your true character IMO.
 
Now as far as the disrespect thing goes... Everything in Red above seems to be disrespectful to meCensored. Please point out where I was disrespecting you??? and if I did I will appologiseEmbarrassed. But please remember the past is the past and that was dealt with.....Wasn't it?Shocked....LOL
 
BTW... I didn't think our community was missing out...I was just wondered if something was being organised for down here for all the Greenhorns that are asking questionsConfused
 
CryHave you thought maybe I was trying to support your effort??? Not nowLOL 
 
 
Seems as other manufacturers are happy to show there toys of to the locals!!! Why don't we leave it at that.

Looking forward to hearing  your seminar in kerikeri Chris, I think that you have done a great deal of work and promotion over the years with regards to Jigging, and I for one am greatful. It was 2005 when I first became aware of this style of fishing whilst reading the deep jigging site. Your willingness to share information openly, has seen this style of fishing grow exponentially.
 Catching kingfish is for my money the poor mans gamefishing, and I love it, my manager at work wishes I could show the same enthusiasm for my job..... FAT CHANCE!!!
 So once again thank you and look forward to hearing you speak.
P.S Oceanus drags arrived, I will bring them with me

If I sponsored a forum such as Chris does here, I too would be sick and tired of people being smart arse and abusive.
The guy is trying to get around and do what he can at his own expense with distributors that have 'asked' for his contribution.
I'm sure he's done more for Jigging in this country than anyone else I can think of.
There's nothing wrong with sharing your opinions - hey that's what these forums are for.
If you have a dig in good humour I see no problem with that either - but keep at it or get personal and you're bound to get a sharp response sooner or later.
Plenty of 'plugs' in this forum for other suppliers too (you don't have to be a rocket scientist to work that one out).
Maybe they could start their own forum and 'contribute' some sponsorship to the site themselves?
Now put up your fishing pix and write a good yarn - that's what we all like to see and read here.

Been a hard road Jason, thanks for your early participation back in 05.  Remember the job i had getting the first jig-only tournament going in the BIO's which you duly won.   I'm pleased to see the Oceanus reel has dealt to plenty of big Kings.  Still have that baby Monster Busta?   Look forward to finally meeting you and getting those washers off you.
 
Ginga, you have been part of this jig promotional thing along with Nuthead and JTF a long time ago.   See what you got people into! 
 
BA, I'm flying up to Auk and can only carry a few jigs along with the rest of my gear.  See ya Monday.
 
give it death!

Chris I have made arrangements for the Zenaq to be burried with me,( NOT CREMATED) i really apreciated the way you took care of my dilemma, prior to heading upto the kings. I have of course replaced the first JM500 with a JMPS500, as  well as a smaller JM,  the Oceanus has performed faultlessly as i am sure the new JM reels will do.
