2014 Swap Meet

[t-bone]

So now it looks like I will miss this due to a conflict. I'll still try to get some of my stuff over with Capt Charlie.

[Got Fish??]

 I would like to attend this year. My father is a retired charter Capt. He had to sell his boat last year and I have a lot of walleye, muskey and perch tackle.  That we have collected over the past 40 years. What time should I arive?

we just got a big box of Baits for the Big Bass 4 Breanna yesterday in the mail. With no returs address and no note we have no idea who sent this box, but to the auction block it will go.
Thank you, mystery fisherperson

About a month to go.  Anyone bringing some 7' spinning rods?  Maybe I can work out a pre-trade trade...

[djkimmel]

Would that be 'insider trading?'

Thought I'd ask

I'm a little over stocked on 10# Fluoro
Seeing how I just picked up a 1000 yd bulk spool

Would anyone be interested in 200 yds of Sunline Sniper for 20 bucks or 200 yds of Invizx for 15
It's 5 bucks off a box. All fresh this year

[YpsiBass]

Bumping this to the top because I've got a couple Shimano Crucials with the old cork handles that I need to get rid of in trade for a couple new rods.  Or cash.  Or whatever. More people, more stuff!

[dartag]

I have Mr Franklin and Mr Grant that want to come along and go home with someone. 

That is if I survive a medical test in the morning.

ALRIGHT !!!!!! Who's heeled up about this weekend !!!! ?

Anyone bringing an FNG ? Cmon, bring someone new to the sport !!

[Hollada]

I'm an FNG and had planned to be there.  I have a box on the bar with about 15 unopened lures of various types (Strike King Pro Model cranks, big muskie size Xwalks, XRaps, and  DT Thugs) and multiple bags of plastics that I had intended to bring. 

Instead I may be laying a floor in the basement of my daughter's house under direct supervision of her mother.

How late does this event typically run?  I may be able to wrap up by 2 or 3.

[YpsiBass]

Last time, by the time I went home it was dark.  It's a good time. Bob and his wife are great hosts.  Fishermen can shoot the breeze FOREVER.

[MSURoss]

I won't be able to make it, but I have a lowrance hds 5 for sale that came with my new boat.

[dartag]

Looks like I missed it.  4 hours of testing this morning.  Getting old is no fun.  See ya when the ice melts...

[Hollada]

Was great to meet you guys today.  Hope to fish with you this year.

[Mojo]

to Mr and Mrs Bob O... Thank you for opening your house to us as graciously and kindly as you did for us.... You are a gift to our community...

Ok maybe some of you out there don't plan well, or you're not seeing value here. Maybe for just as well ...more for us  .. Here what you guys coulda got in on..... Hundreds of soft plastics, all trading around a $1 a bag, ISKI, $6-15 crank baits for $2 -4 bucks, props reconditioned $50-150.  USKI, Fish finders $50. Rods reels $10-40 bucks,  frog rods $20, WeSKI!!! Every kind of new and old baits, good reels too!

Personally, this is a better event than the UFS because of the comrodre  and good people. Soooooo. If I remember right, I brought 2 boxes of stuff I didn't need, traded nearly ALL of it. Gave it away. Came home money neutral (cant count the $20 in auction donations) and a hell of a hang over ( too much cola).

That was fun fun fun. Gotta put the hair back up and get back to it.... See you next year, and you better be there. Yes you. You reading this, no excuses. Unless you aren't into people, stories, drinks, food, fun, more stories, (drinks?) some Swappin.

Mojo: Glad you got home ok.  Thanks for the wiskey.  Good to see ya.
