It was a great talk and how to by Steve McKenna tonite at the MSBA meeting. I learned a new method and can't wait to try his way of rigging those sluggos. The guy knows his stuff, I'd say anybody who fishes eels should check out his seminar.
It was good to get out and see the familar faces and enjoy a pre-show dinner with a bunch of good guys.

dammm , would like to have seen that .. is that the 2 hooks with the dacron method,, I rigged some like that for next year ..

I have to agree that the seminar was absolutely outstanding. I am going to build myself a big pile of those rigged sluggos over the next couple of months in hopes that I too can have an "800 pound night" like he talked about.

Great job Steve, well worth the wait. :btu:

Tagger, yes thats the method

It was a great presentation, and nice to pick at his brain a little bit. It was also nice to meet #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&, and get to talk to him a little.

I also met Cheif10, and SeaDangles those 2 guys are good guys, can wait to fish with them.

He had a segment on "On the Water Magazine's" TV show last week. I too thought that was a rigging method I'll have to try.

steve did a reel good job. nice to see some of you guys!

Good show - Good work :btu: !

It was an awesome presentation. Steve did a great job. It was great looking around and seeing so many people giving him their full attention. Thank you again Steve :btu:

Good to meet you as well Specialist and Great job by Stevie Vanstaal. :claps:

Great seminar and Steve really seems like a great guy. My only complaint would be that I thought the stampede for the rigging directions was a little rude. It seemed like Steve was ready to do some Q&A which I think we all would have benefited from. It was nice that he stayed to talk with everyone one on one.

I am glad I listen because I never would have retrieved the sluggo as fast as he told us to last night. Rigging is really quite simple. For the that did not hear Steve the rigging techniques was documented in the September issue of On the Water. Thier wont be any sluggos around for awhile. The 150 members there probably went out otday and bought them all.:hihi:

When I left the meeting, I was thinking that this would be a really great method to teach my son. I'm tired of telling him to 'slow it down', and I'm sure he's tired of hearing it..

Fast and eratic, perfect for an 11 year old :tm:

I agree...I think he got everybody so excited with the fish porn slide show:jump:

Steve does a great presentation, he really knows his stuff. Looking forward to rigging some up.

Great speaker....excellent presentation.....never use sluggo's much before but he made me think! Nice to meet him and #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&!:kewl:
