Title: Free Seminar September 21st
Post by: raisinrat on September 07, 2012, 07:22:52 AM
As fall is quickly approaching many fishermen minds start drifting to little yellow fish we call Perch!(yum yum) But it is also a great time to chase other species causes they are putting on the feed bag. Another fall Favorite here on lake St. Clair are Bass. So we thought why not have our friend Joe Balog come on in and talk fall fishing for Bass and cover a topic that is near and dear to John and I's heart Plastics and Panfish.

Many know Joe as the professional bass guy, but when it's not tournament season he is just like us he loves to chase panfish out here on the POND!!

So come join us as we talk fall bass on the Goby Replica and Fall PERCH on Plastics(this is a topic we get asked about everyday at the shop). This should be a fun eveing for all who attend.

Well I can finally announce a few things.

Joe Balog will again have freebies from his sponsors such has Plano, Reel Grips, Rapala and a few others. I know last time the big giveaway was a free Gallon of Mercery Oil and all kinds of lures, hats, T-Shirts and tackle boxes.You just never know what he might have to giveaway. He is also maybe one of the best seminar speakers I have ever listened to he will entertain you the whole time.

Also we have a few freebies for you guys just waiting for them to come in. Once they come in I will post a picture of it.

We are also running some in-store specials through the weekend which start on Friday. I didn't list them all on the flyer below but they will be signed through the store so you guys know.

Looking forward to see in everyone this friday and over the weekend.

I would have loved to come out and meet Joe. Going to the Tiger game. I would recommend to any angler who fishes LSC or Erie. I'm positive that Joe will give you some great info.

So here is how the parking works for these nights.We have our parking in the front of the store and to the south where you guys park your boats when you come in. If those areas are full there is two areas you can park. One is in the overflow lot at the DNR boat launch next door(north side of building)a passport sticker is suggested. The other is the park across the street from the shop you access that parking lot off of Ballard Rd.

We ask that you please keep in mind that there is a driveway(orange area in the pic below) to the Marina behind us.Please try not to block the drive way.

Can't wait to see everyone tonight. This should be another great seminar.

Guys that was a crazy huge turnout. I want to thank everyone that came out I did record it. I will look over the video and see how it turned out and will post if there is something useable. We had our largest turn out yet , over 60 people. We know many of you had other questions so john and I are thinking a follow topic on going over certain rigging and tactics. Stay tuned for that and more info.
