I appreciate your response with consideration to “perceived performance” and I definitely agree with the difficulty in it. Maybe an easier way to describe this is to imagine yourself, as a professional fisherman, with all of these lure and fly pics at your disposal prior to a tournament with a wonderful cash prize. If you only had a handful to pick for the tournament, which ones would you pick, and ask yourself why? Therein lies the “perceived performance” criteria. If you already incorporate that into your decision-making, why not make that a category of that criteria.
I also understand that this may be getting too involved with the general fun intended for the contest and to keep it more simply as the coolest “looking” lure contest. That is certainly ok (cool) also.
Thanks so much for taking the time. You guys/gals are great in doing this. I certainly did not mean any ill criticism, just wanted to create more thought in the matter since we are all wanting to contribute thought-provoking conversation and ideas through this contest. All my best.- 1

I am amazed at the talent of these submittals, especially the painting category. Congrats to all of the winners. You should be proud.

I’d like to suggest another category to your judging criteria. The current criteria is:
Overall Appearance
Originality
Complexity of Construction
Quality of Finish
I know the combined expertise of the judges must be to the extent that they know what can function on the water. This takes into account ease of use, applied action, and durability. Granted, without actually having it in hand it would be difficult to thoroughly judge these qualities. But experienced anglers do purchase new items online because of perceived performance, a criteria I’d like to suggest considering with the others.
