WOW!
Consensus amongst the people I was talking to was that it is probably one of the best shows ever put on. At least in the Northeast.
Attendance was pretty darn good Saturday afternoon ... I bumped into a bunch of folks - Victor, Nils, Don M, Kadir, Surfpirate, Fish_Eye, Flaptail, Tattoo, Habs, Fishpart & sons, and a few others.
Don Michaud, Nils, Kadir, DZ, #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&, Mako Mike, and Corey of Saltwater Edge looked pretty darn busy manning their booths. Frantic at times it seems, particularly after the noon rush. I'm wondering if these guys will ever admit to being "showed out" by now!
Habs & Tattoo - gotta hand it to you, those two ladies were a hit!
I'm sure the rainy weather really helped attendance.
Good show. Lots of good vendors with stuff to sell. Ample parking, and very convenient access to the shopping mall for the attached significant others who did not want to be stuck browing fishing stuff for hours on end. Lots of diversions for after the show.
Was rather intrigued to see a LOT of new custom wooden plugs whose makers I have not yet heard of. All I can say is, wow.
