You know I hear you
I had cash and would have bought more if there was more
And I do kind of think it's a dieing show. i'd be peeed if I paid to see that

But it's real nice to see fishing friends, talk fishing or meet new people
For that, I'd would pay to go

[Got Fish??]

I enjoy the fishing show. It gets me out of the house. The show is  more of a who's who for myself. I get to talk  to a bunch of great guys, I haven't seem since ice in.  There is not much I buy any more. Got to much stuff I don't use now. What works for me gets bought In bulk or  at  the spring sale at Bass Pro. I pick some stuff from Wayne, that's just a  given.

I would add that if you have young children, the seminar that's ran for them at the hawg trough is a hoot.  I can't remember the name of  the guy that gave it, but he does a real good job.  It was the highlight of my kids day. 

Well, that and Dan telling my oldest that she was famous because her picture is on the internet.  She beamed for awhile after that.

Its never to early to talk about the Ultimate Fishing Show.  Looking forward to that show is what gets me through the month of December.  Last years show was a little lackluster as far as vendors go, but some of the seminars were great.  Thanks for posting the dates

Funny you mention that, I usually think the exact same thing. This past year I stopped at a guy's booth selling tubes out of Rubbermaid bins. I asked him what his favorite one was, and bought a 10 pack. Got around to fishing them this weekend and...wow.

Only wish I knew who he was and how to get more...whoever you are, thank you!
