Bloo you almost got it too. Now stop wasting time, get some more works of art up there. :D

So Bloo - you figure it out yet? Bit of a learning curve, eh :D ?

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone that helped set this night up. Great Job. It was great to put some more names to faces. I wish I could have spent more time getting to meet more people. Great food, and great raffle. I was the lucky recipient of both a beachmaster and a habs custom plug. Thanks. Also, Fisheye, great video. As you would expect from those of us that work the suds, we were a captive audience. The real tribute to your video and narration was keeping the non-fishers focused and interested. My wife enjoyed the show and even said she found it interesting.

Fishsmith, it was good to meet you and Mrs fishsmith.

Again, thanks for a great night

WHO won the Bugger plugs?

I ended up with one!!!!:D :D :D me likes....:D :D


crap I gonna have so much good new stuff this year I dont know what I wanna try out first!!!!

Great! There's one, how bout others?

I am thinking of having a little "contest" for fish this year....will forward details Jenn.

pressures on.....:rolleyes: :D im waiting.....:laughs:

nice to see everybody saturday night, as a rookie to saltwater fishing it's nice to meet and talk about fishing with people who love it as much as i do. my wife told me she saw fish in her dreams, i laughed at that one. i got a habs pink & white jointed swimmer,(dont know if i should even open it) 2 plugs by slip(ready to go) year membership msba and all kinds of rubber.
thanks for everything, looking forward to fishing with more of you this year.:D

I got one. Its not a floater.
