Jason - just seeing this as I am not on BBC anywhere as near as much as I would like to be. Looks like there have been solid donations made to do date, monetarily and through actual tackle sent. Do you still need donations? Can happily do do or will make a donation to the BBC emergency fund instead.
I only ask as I know we have seen times where this great big awesome group of people donate where more than any one person or family could ever use. God Bless and thanks for sharing this!!
I have updated the original post as you saw for PayPal donations. I have had multiple people communicate that things are being shipped. I haven’t received anything yet but it’s to soon to have anyway with shipping times.Originally Posted by Bassin Billy
I guess to answer your question feel free to donate to this or emergency fund as you see fit. I appreciate you offering to help.
I have been humbled with this for sure.

I can get a rod out to him, I've got probably an extra 10 personal builds I don't even use. Think he'll mind a spiral wrap?
Paypal sent
He would appreciate anything he can get. Thank you sir
Got it. Thank you sir
Shipped the package today via USPS, should get there by Friday. I will pm you the tracking number.
Thank you sir
I have taken the PayPal donations and gone to our local tackle shop and they added some as well. I have a gift card for him for $1,050.00. I will be giving him the gift card and the items I have received this week. All other items that are being shipped will be given to him as they arrive. I will post updates when I give it to him.
thank you all for your generosity.
Going through my boats this weekend. Just how much stuff will fit in a priority large box

Met with Mike and his son Ethan last night. Ethan was unaware of the post or anyone helping get him back on the water. He was in complete amazement that people who didn’t know him would be so generous to him and send him so much. I told him there were people who cared for him that he has never met and the BBC family is like no other. He was very humbled and said, “I can’t believe they would do that for me”. Here are a few pictures of him like a kid at Christmas. His smile says it all. Thank you all who have donated and all that have communicated that you are still sending items I promise you I will get them to Ethan and he is humbled and appreciative CF853C16-2FD3-480D-A6B5-5C694ECAD535.jpeg612FC859-5761-457F-BCA1-973C618ADF4F.jpegD3A69227-471C-4DFD-BCE8-ADBEF8CD6FF7.jpegABB2B50F-831F-4B4D-BDD6-85FB10C7AAB8.jpeg
