I got my list, prioritized and re-prioritized. What are you looking for?

Me, I would like to find a surf spin reel that I can't resist, Habs and Tat's that we can't find on the North Shore, and maybe if they're there, an Aquaskinz top......

I want one of Hab's new color needlefish :drool:
and to meet a bunch of people from the site ;)

I am going with no plans - just buy everything I want- yeah right.

Buy a few things.....volunteer for a while..... :smokin: :devil2: :D then take a ride to stoughton and Alex's .....? Anyone else game?

If you are unfamiliar with Alex's - it is kinda like hooters only better :jump1:

ahhhhhh....Alex's. I haven't been to "the ballet" in quite some time.

avet :devil:

I for one won't be looking for anything because I'm a complete idiot.

I scheduled a side job for this weekend without thinking.Somebody please shoot me.

:rocketem: :hs:

Any thing I can spend money on.

tynan - we all want to see more stars :eyes: ......I missed seeing them...one of my few regrets that night :bl:

-IWK

Star and I are going Saturday.

What day are people going? I'm going Sat.

I will be just looking around?? If something hits me I will buy it. if not I will go home empty handed??

But will have had a good time!! And I need that right now with all the crap thats going on in my real life!!

a new friend! =P

looking for two spinning setups, a habs and superstrike needle, PFD and any other good stuff I can find.

Have a feeling I will be dropping a grand on fishing stuff.

I have been saving my pennies!!

See some old friends and make some new ones. Shake a few hands and tell some fish stories. Just be around fellow fishermen. Maybe pick up a lightweight combo for sluggo's from the boat and a few plugs.

Sportsman,

I plan on going Saturday and Sunday - volunteering for one or both days. Hope to see you there....and bring me some tools. ;)

-IWK

Wireline setup, my annual search for yozuri tobimarus, maybe some aquaskinz... Also looking forward to the seminars. Unfortunately my time is limited with St. Patty's parade and family stuff so I'll miss the monomoy seminar... bummer

-IWK

Does the star have any say in this? I will be there Saturday...look around for a bit...maybe find a few of you say hi ;) and when my other half goes to the seminars...wonder out into the mall...:boots: The best of both worlds!

I'll be buying Gamu's by the boxes, and I am sure some more money will make it out of my pocket.

I'm going to buy my first custom rod. And maybe buy some Saltys :D

Every Year for the past few years, I pick different color teasers from Fisherwoman. I look forward to it. It will be my first stop.

Looking for plug parts. Belly weights and grommets. Saaaaaay, who tarted up my favorite fishing site?

a nice silver VS 250

if I find a pikie or metal lip painted in a US flag pattern even better!

i'll be lookin' for tinman, soze i can mug him for plug supplies.

Will Tinman and NJ tackle be at the show, or will they arrive a half hour after it closes?

;)

:hidin:

hehe I'll email him directions...via Detroit :D

as long as i don't get shanghighed to work i will be there on sun , i said i would help out. sounds like fishing boston harbor and the islands is a must see , oh ya and spend lots of money :D

I'll be picking up my new rod thanks to Mike. Please come on warm weather so I can use it. I'll look kinda stupid casting it in the snow.

Looking for needlefish plugs, some advice from the cast net demonstration and some good info from other seminars. After that, it is whatever catches my eye because I think I'm pretty well stocked as it is.

My Sanity........................... :uhoh:

The two spinning setups will be custome rods. Does anyone know if the builders will have time to get the specific information for the rods? Will they be too busy to help me out?

In addition to attending a few of the seminars, I'll be looking to purchase some gami circle hooks, jigs (spro & canal specials) and some fly teasers.

Lure building supplies(lips,eyes and small grommets for needles.), rubbahhhh, and a few eelskin jigs if I can find em, I want to try that this year...

I am hoping to see the new Okuma VS reel at the show, to be avail in April they told me. Supposed to have an elliptical gear which eliminates the hesitation at the top and bottom of retrieve rotation. Hell, I didn't know about the hesitation. (Wonder how they came up with VS as the name for the new reel????? :doh:

ginsu knives , really absorbant towels , cool shades , insta shine and taffy

Simple fly tying kit for tail hooks and teasers
plug bag
plyers
plugs & jigs & rubba

and I must resist buying another rod ;)

No plan
Whatever strikes my fancy

Will prolly sign up for membership

some cod rigs (if there are any) lead, hooks, maybe a needlefish or two...

see y'all there sat!

I wonder if any dealers will have a Saltiga????

Slipknot,

Why you askin' bout Saltigas??? :cool:

You gettin' itchy?

I have a Van Stall that I might like to turn into a Saltiga like yours :)
How's the capacity on your 5000?
and is yours a new one? the new ones say the weight is 20 oz. compared to 29

Try and get a couple of Habs Needles....( for the 3rd year ). Get some lips for my plugs, meet a bunch of the guys from this site I hope....would love to put a face to some of the names here...maybe catch a seminar, but not sure yet...watch some of the pros turn some plugs...see what else catches my eye :eyes: .....

Is Point Jude Lures going to be represented there? I wanna get my hands on some Tin.

Yes he will be there. Just got these babies :wave: in the mail.

I will be there with lots of shiny and sparkling deadly devices designed for the demise of dennisons of the deep. :bl: I am looking forward to meeting all y'all.

I will be looking for a Shimano Stella in perhaps the 8000FA model. Hoping of a “show special” price. If I have any $ left after that, then a good pair of pliers and a new pair of Polarized sun glasses. Also will be looking at those Point Jude tins.

Most of all I will be looking forward to meeting some of the members of this board. In my past months of lurking I have learned a lot. Look for a short ol’ guy with a white beard wearing a Westport Fisherman’s hat with a 1964 Mass Bass pin. Yes, I will be re-joining after all these years.

spend your money on something else at the show. Shimano does not allow that reel to be sold below a minimum retail price. :splat: You can get it for the same price any time of the year.

Thanks for the tip Mike. That's not very nice of them. :hs:
