You still have ice? How has the fishing been? No MSBA for me.

Yes - if you are going come see me - if I am not there when you come up - wait :btu:

Connecticut Surfcasters Spring Dinner to kick off the season Sat night.

Although unlimited beer and wine- I doubt any fire extinguishers will be set off. Looking forward to a great time.

Hanging out and watching Fringe tonight

Tomorrow heading out at 5:30 am to M&D's then going to MSBA show
After the show my Mom is going to come down for a visit, probably going out to dinner watch the Fighter again

John I need a sticker for my new truck are you going to have some?

WE HAVE STICKERS!!!

Both Kinds. Arrived yesterday. 1,000.

Free, at the show, if you mention it, and 2 free if I owe you one :devil2:

My only request is that if you get stickers, I ask that you buy raffle ticket(s) at the next S-B Fundraiser if you can. Details when I get to it (had hoped to have it ready for MSBA show but not done yet).

Waking up early to get to Mikes and probably going to spend some $$. Then heading right back home and doing chores around the house. I need to pick up some pencils and a couple Penn 113's, and whatever else catches my eye. I am up for breakfast if anyone is interested.

Sunday Morning

Yes - if you are going come see me - if I am not there when you come up - wait :btu:

Ill come by and say hello.
Me and Tagger are heading to m&d's and then there.

I will be by Sunday afternoon, been out of town too much lately.. Definitely need 2 stickers. Will be buying raffle tickets for MSBA raffle and S-B.com raffle and Tri state raffle. Especially if i win $305 million Powerball Saturday night!

I need to sleep, been way to long, just got in from DC.

Had problem with the Photobucket app :fury:.

Here's the Choopy/RMS collaboration needles.

If anyone is up for working the S-B booth for an hour or two over the weekend, give me a shout - be nice to take a break from time to time.

If anyone would like to cover for an hour or two mid-day today this would be fantastic as I only slept about an hour last night :smash:

Bill - you're off the hook ;)

See you guys on Saturday! We'll stop by and say hello.

Going to Rhody with da wife for the weekend,I guess I gotta put some time in since it's our 15th Anniversary:love:

Congrats on 15.

Good show, get your bodies down there Sunday (if you weren't there today)!

You don't even have to miss any post on S-B.com, Bossman has it running on the big screen.:rotf2: Relax on the blowup's (couches not dolls) and rest a while. Just don't decide to cut jerky while seated.:smash:

Get your S-B.com stickers: old style or new versions!

It was a S-B.com convention.

got some good stuff to copy.

Stopped and watched the herring in the middleboro run on the way home

5/0 congrats on the 15th to you and the lucky lady. Have fun in Rhody.

The admission line was out the door at a little after 10 this morning. Hopefully for the vendors this resulted in some business.

The casting area had plenty of room to challenge my fly casting abilites and Joe V demonstrated how it should be done. Got to speak with and met some new people. It was a good day.

As in what? Plugs? Paint?

Ladies thongs

Ya know... I debated typing something along those lines....

So the show was good?

There were some using surf roda and you could hear things clang off the ventilation system./...

Going to bed...

My daughter and I had a great time. Met JohnR and PT.JudeJoe. JohnR, you need to find some more of those couches to sell at the next show! My daughter pointed out the biggest boat there as the one she wanted next! Then pointed out the State Record Striper as the next one she wants to catch. Didn't see RonZ this year?
Then we took a ride over to M&D's. Didn't get to talk to Mike in the crowd. Hi Mike. Judging by the thinned out shelves he did ok.

One month to go........

I bought some incredible plugs from some fantastic people. I saw Gary Soldati speak. I did some recon for new spots on the way home. Worth the drive from Maine.

Anyone know if you can get your MA Saltwater license at the MSBA show? If so do they give an actual license versus the online print out thing??

yes you can get one there.....simple paper printout that will not hold up...

staples has those little lamination kits for a few bucks. works pissa

Thanks guys!

Parking really SUCKs!

I had to park in one of the soccer goals that were in the field.

I lucked out and got parking pretty close to the front. I thought it was a pretty good show. Seemed like fewer vendors than in the past, but still enough to keep me busy for a few hours. It was good to see a lot of people (especially Kenny the elusive Yak Rat) and shoot the bull for a while. I ended up buying some stuff I didn't need, as usual. I also stopped in at M&D's on the way to Plymouth and picked up some sweet plugs and some terminal stuff. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday.

Really wish I could've made it. Neice's birthday kept me away.

Ryan White landed a tennis ball attached to his line in two different light fixtures.

I would have quit, myself, after the first. :D

It still didn't compare to the best casting demonstration I saw--when Ron Arra took out a whole chandelier (and the top 6" of his rod) demonstrating a cast at a seminar on Long Island. :behead:

we had a good time at the show. as we were walking around a corner charlie cinto came up to us and said he was looking for a kid. we went over by the display of his bass and he gave dominic a wood fish piggy bank. very nice of him, dom was very excited. even more excited after he checked out charlies bass. "dad, that fish is bigger then any striper you've caught"

was great to see you and Dom today Paul. hopefully I get to fish with you guys this year. thanks for the water. was tough getting away from the booth.

A booth babe's live is a tough one.

Did I win?

Wow sounds like another good time had by all that went to the show,I was planning on making it but in my case I focused on my other investment,I had great time re energizing my battery's with my little lady,thanks for all of the positive thoughts Guys:cheers:
