I was happy that everyone stopped by and said hello at the booth!!

Here is everyone that showed up in not in any order; Slipknot,Slip Senior :P , Saltheart, Smokey, Chris L, Jenn & Hubby (no board handle), Canalratt1, Bob Thomas, C.O.D, Ragfly, Dad of Squid Kid, East Tide, Fishpart (with Son & Dad), Got Stripers, Mr Kav, Topwater and the Bride, The Specialist, Clamdigger (who bought a sweet outfit from MikeCC), Cap'n Nor-Easter, tobias, and DJO Bass

The show was a great success and had some nice deals too. Saltheart used my booth for his canal jig distribution facility but neglected to remember his Mag-E that I have (oh well, guess I have 3 now ;P ) and he was kind enough to mind the shop so I could get some chow (thanks Saltie). I'm thankful he didn't injure himself on the myriad of cables, PCs, and junk littering the floor ???

Again, thanks for showing up - great show and great to meet alot of you for the first time, and I'm sure, not the last...

Now let's get some fish!!!

(If I missed ya, yell at me in your reply o: )

Yes John, It was good to see you also. I said before in the lost thread that it blew my mind when I went to introduce you to my dad, you said his name before I said anything.

Good to meet some of the people on this board also. I met Fisherwoman,Baitcaster,Saltheart,Smokey and Nor_easter(Chet). I also saw ChrisL again. I also met some people from SOL- Angler#1 and Ron Arra and Stan Kuzia(sp?). I also ran into Got Stripers on the way out.

It was really nice to finally meet you Saltheart and thanks for the bonus jigs. The show was small but very good. I caught most of the seminar on surfcasting. And my father picked up another rod and reel from CMS this year.

I am looking forward to fishing with alot of you guys this year at some point.

Hey Slip - That was quite a suprise. I never made the connection before but it was funny when you and your dad walked up to the booth... We've worked together for a year plus now... I got your e-mail. I'm thinking that trip will happen late summer. I'l let you know. As far as the boat trip, 8) ...

Clamdigger, I hope all is going as well as can be at home...
Good to see you at the show and you got a real nice rig there...

John, no thanks necessary. I really appreciate you taking the time and effort to provide us with this forum.

I enjoyed the show, but it was a little difficult trying out too much stuff with my futre surf caddy attached to my finger.

Great to meet you too Slipknot. Sorry I thought you were GotStipers but i guess what I saw was picture of you holding a fish in Got Stripers boat? Anyway , nice to meet you. The Smilin Bills speak for themselves but the bonus six balls with the white curltails will catch fish as good as anything out there.
