As an avenue for requesting donations to Project ReSpeck, I created a special kind of Trout Eye jig that you can only receive with a $20 donation to the fund.
It has a special eye that has a diffraction pattern that reflects rainbow colored light in all directions. These special Trout Eyes are only available on our store by clicking here.
The donation is tax-free, and of course you can also make a donation of any amount by choosing the other product option. That is also tax free and goes straight to the fund. We have had several people donate that way.

Thanks very much guys. The response has been pretty strong. Received approx $300 in donations yesterday and SSWA raised $300 at their March meeting.
Let’s keep it rolling!
This being my first post to the site after many years of following it,I am happy to be able to contribute to the Project Respeck. I only started fishing the saltwater about 6 years ago and love the inshore/ nearshore fishing and shrimping. Bought a Shearwater 25 footer 5 years ago with a 300 yammy and some good electronics. Have not used it but once in the last 2 years after my wife was diagnosed with cancer and died from it. Planning to get back on the water as often as possible this year. Love the site and the many great lessons I have learned here. I encourage everyone that can to contribute to keeping the fisheries stocked and healthy. I use the jigs on every trip with success. Keep up the good work.
Thanks to all who made donations on our website and by purchasing our special TroutEyes. I have tallied all the contributions including $300 raised at the March SSWA meeting and have made a donation to the fund today of $1,105!
Those who donated through our website, should receive a letter shortly (give it a couple weeks) with your tax deductible donation letter from the fund manager.
We will soon have some sweet Project ReSpeck performance shirts for which 100% of the proceeds will go to the fund, thanks to the generosity of Vapor Apparel here in Charleston! More info soon…

I just learned about this initiative and I hope it is still in effect. I just purchased a couple packs. I love the cause and thank you for doing your part in motivating others to donate.
