With the MSBA show less than a week away and many about full of winter by now, how many are getting primed for the show next weekend? Planning on coming just 1 day or both? Are you looking for anything in particular that you have been wanting for the upcoming season or are you going to be seeing one of the great seminars planned for the weekend?:D Even though I will be working my butt off all weekend, I hope to meet many of you while you are there, maybe buy a few things I might be looking for, but I really love to see all go well and that everyone enjoys the show!:happy:

VRROOOOOOOMMMM

VRROOOOOOOMMMM

:gf: :gf:

:hidin:
Long range forecast calling for another snow/rain storm for fri/sat:eek:

There is my number 1 guy right there....you seem all revved up Van!:laughs:

I placed my order for cloudy skies with no snow for next week....I hope Mother Nature co-operates but we will be there rain, snow, or shine. Can't think of much better to do on a snowy, rainy weekend than see a great fishing show....provided you can get there!:ss:

HELL YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm ready for it. I need it bad.

I think the wife is more amped about it than I am :D

Last year, she walked away with a custom Batson 1088 ;)

Mike P...are you going to be there? I sure would like to say hello.:D

Weather or not, be there Saturday.

After 23, or is it 24 :huh: snow events, whats one more, getting used to it, I must say, I'll go even if it's a foot or better, no worries.

Flap don't blab till late afternoon:huh:.... hmm, hate to get there later, than sooner, might be a loooong day.

We'll be there Larry. Not sure which day yet. We'll be leaving here Friday night, and I guess it depends on what time we get to my mom's place in Rhody and how early we get up on Sat. ;)

Plan on spending a day there with at least one friend and my brother, looking at sunday right now but I'm free both days. Really depends on other's schedules.

I don't need anything but I'm sure I'll leave with some tackle. Especially looking forward to the seminars!

I'm sure we'll run into a bunch of guys from here just like year's past.

Larry - you guys do a good job every year. With the new space and addition of the plug demo, I feel this will be the best yet. Keep up the good work.:btu:

Moses, thanks.:D We really do try to make it a worthwhile experience for all and try to make it better each year. Look forward to seeing you there.;)

Sounds like a great show. I'd love to go up there and meet you guys, but I think I'll save that trip for some fishing in June.:kewl:

Stump Merrill is signing autographs at the refreshment stand too!:( Make sure you get in touch with me for your June trip...love to "hook-up" with you.....maybe change your name to 52inches!:laughs:

:heybaby: A 52 pounder would be even better. BTW- I think I should try one of your plugs down here to see if they're good in our local waters. I'll bring it back to you in June.:D

Absolutely revved to go. Have been for the last three years and it keeps getting better. :happy:

Bummed that I cannot go til Sunday. Big Italian ST. Joseph's Day feast on the 19th. :drool:

But I will be there for a good part of the day on Sunday (which just happens to be my B-day!). Looking forward to meeting at least some of you guys. But how to know who you all are though? :confused:

Sounds like the Expo will have a huge turnout :) I will be there Friday for setup then Saturday and Sunday I will be collecting your $$$ at the door !! Be sure to say hi and introduce yourself :heybaby:

Can't wait for the show. Been looking forwad to it for the last month. Can't ait to spend some $$$ on tackle. :hihi:

Larry, what kind of technology do you have available for the presentations? Slide projector, power point projector or should I just do the old presentation boards with pics and bring some rods and such? I can do this just about any of those ways. Need to know soon. I have an older presentation on slides but I have an updated version as well. Looking forward to a couple fun days.

I'm hoping to go to the expo this weekend, but, being the poor college kid that I am, I have no ride. Is anybody in the boston area willing to give me a ride, I can meet anyone anywhere the T goes. I'd also be willing to chip in for gas money if you'd like. PM me if you're interested, thanks in advance.

Dave

I'll be there, probably have the boys in tow again.

Bassman, take the commuter rail to Kingston, it's not even a 10 minute walk from there.

I'll be there when the doors open Saturday with my Son in tow. Been looking forward to this for awhile. He's even doing some extra chores to earn a little green for the show.

Spinni bummer you can't make it saturday.

Can't wait to see the Plug Demos. and to meet some of the other members. If you see me say hi, Big guy w/ a beard (yeah That narrows it down) I'll be wearing my "The Dad Fisherman" hat though so say Hi

Flap...we have a video projector and screen......if you have a slide presentation, feel free to bring it but you will have to supply the projector. See you this weekend. :happy:

I'm ready for the show, many 1/2 price specials this year, plus two buckets of discount big rubber. Basic black beauty in one bucket, 7-9-13 inch and in the other primarily versions of pearl and yellow, with most of the bucket pearl bellies over pearl yellow tops.

I will be with Kadir at the Aquaskins booth, be sure to stop by and say howdy and play with all the new stuff!
