Back from Berkley
 

Well I made it back from the Berkley Flea market safe and sound. Lot of nice stuff. Here is what I brought back.

picked up some stuff for others while I was there. All in all it was a good time. Just a long drive. Oh and driving thru NY city, unbelievable :doh:

Mac;
It was good seeing you again. I'm glad to hear that you made it home safe.
Next time take 287 to the Garden State Parkway and drive around the city!!
Those plugs in the box with "Johnny" written on them?? Was Johnny at the show or is that someone different?

Very nice Dave now you know why i take the ferry.Also i am bringing a friend to the plugfest as my guest thesurf121(ken).Was at his house this weekend bs'ing and invited him to come along.We were talking about your plugs and i mentioned he should come and meet you.

ohhh are those gary's plugs you got there??? :drool:

Good seeing you too Bill. I took 287 going home, boy all those toll booths suk. Ya just get moving and ya have to stop again:poke:
The ones with Johnny on them are for Ratty, Gary said Johnny was looking for a couple of slims. Of course if he doesn't want them I'll be more than happy to fish them:hihi:


Hi Lou, I am looking forward to RI too. But don't want to wish away the whole season.. :D

I think you got 1 of each that was there.:hihi:
Going through NY is no fun. Its a long trip.

Here is a better picture of the resin bass. He had 2 sizes and this was the smaller one. Not bad for 35 bux. He also had other species; marlin,tarpon,tuna. Large ones are about 3 times the size so I chose the smallewr of the 2.

:jump:

Look at all the Gary 2's.......Looks like you scored bigtime MAC! :drool: :drool: :drool: :humpty:

That resin fish is sweet, its got 'mantle' written all over it.
I hope the guy that made it is not bringing them to the msba show, otherwise I'm gonna have a fight on my hands.

It's the sizzler I got on eBay. Picked it up at the show.

Nice score Mac :btu:

Gary, you're a good chit and an even better plug builder, thanks for remembering. I hope everything is well with you :wavey:

Hey Gary, just speaking as a friend, you might want to find a new phrase to use to say hello. :blush: Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I took the needle out of my fishing stash because I wasn't holding too good at the time . had to give something.. The needle cast great and is bigfish proven over and over . i hope you got it .. its magic .:alien:

Now you tell me...:eek5: I wanted the Nike in a bad way.:devil:
