Abu Garcia will conduct a “Tips4Tackle” contest that allows anglers to submit short video fishing tips for a chance to win a grand prize that includes new Abu Garcia products before they ever hit the market.
Anglers can upload videos via their YouTube or Facebook accounts and automatically submit them to the contest. Consumers will then vote for their favorite videos. The one with the most votes wins the grand rize.
The contest includes prizes for the 2nd- through 5th-place videos as well. Additionally anglers' videos that are selected by Abu Garcia to be featured on the Angler Education section of AbuGarcia.com will receive a free Black Max low-profile reel, even if they're not one of the winning videos selected by consumers.
“This is a great opportunity for anglers to share their best tips,” said Abu Garcia brand manager Chris Derrick. “It can be any tip that an angler feels important to share with the angling public. All anglers are looking for helpful insights to better their chances at success, and the Abu Garcia Tips4Tackle video contest provides that platform. Plus, it is a great chance to win some of the newest gear from Abu Garcia."
The submission period for video fishing tips is March 16 through May 31st and the voting period for videos closes on June 10th. Winners will be announced on June 13 on AbuGarcia.com.
“Anglers are encouraged to submit tips on spooling line, knot-tying, how to rig baits or fishing different types of structure,” said Derrick. “This is the perfect time for anglers to get creative with their fishing tips.”
