D. Voting is up to the voters; no one can force or rally a vote, please visit all nominated trip reports and vote for the best one in your opinion. Please vote based on quality of the report and not popularity of people, fish or areas that you are most familiar with personally.
You MUST have 50 posts to vote

and you can vote in all three regional polls per this rule:

all members with more than 50 posts are then able to vote one time for their favorite trip reports among the fifteen final nominations (5 reports x 3 regions).

USA EAST COAST (INCLUDING GULF) FINALISTS FIRST QUARTER 2011

USA EAST REPORT #1

Author: ny_er
Title: Awesome couple days on the water
URL: http://www.spearboard.com/showthread.php?t=118487
Region: US East Coast
Date of Trip report thread origination: 01-23-2011, 04:37 PM
Reason: As Ben said in the post...Let the pictures do the talking.

USA EAST REPORT #2

Author: DiveGal
Thread Title: LadyGaDivers do it with GradyMan!
URL: http://www.spearboard.com/showthread.php?t=121327
Geographic Region: US East Coast
Date of Trip report thread origination: 3/20/11
Description: Finally getting to dive with GradyMan in his backyard after 4 years of talking about it.
Reason for Nomination: All spearboarders on this trip! It was great diving a new spot with so many friends and then sharing that new experience with all of my other SB friends!

USA EAST REPORT #3

Author: Kevin Sheets - Join Date: Mar 2006 Posts: 2,146
Thread Title: First Dive Sunday - Views at nomination time 1,308
URL: http://www.spearboard.com/showthread.php?t=121130
Geographic Region: USA East Coast
Date of Trip report thread origination: 03-16-2011, 09:10 PM
Description: Kevin braves the cold waters of New England to go spearfishing and test a new gun
Reason for Nomination: This was the ONLY trip report I could find in the New England section in the first quarter of the year. It has classic winning elements like the brevity of New England intellectual humor (aka "wit"), the sharp sense of humorous repartee between fascinating New England characters, and the irony (and brevity) of cold water spearing catches at that time of year.

Description: Char encounters an Ocean Sunfish while Spearfishing
Reason for Nomination: Because she deserves it.

Arrow Re: USA West Coast Poll - Trip Report Challenge First Quarter 2011 - We Need your vot

Please do not post in this thread to help assure compliance with this rule:

Quote:
B. No rallying or mobilizing other members to second a nomination or vote for a finalist whatsoever is allowed either internally on Spearboard or externally. Any evidence of this may result in disqualification.
But, I may bump the voting poll threads to the top of "New Posts" periodically to remind members to cast their votes.

If you want to make a comment or ask a question that does not promote voting for your favorite finalist, please do it here in this thread at this link: http://spearboard.com/showthread.php?t=130919
