Is it really worth the trip from Long Island?
that's pretty subjective - odds are you won't see too much different than at other shows but here its pretty much all saltwater fishing shops involved
How about the other speakers?
A few other people, Charlie Soares, Doebly from the RFA, Bill -n- Juls...
Approx. how many booths do they have?
About 100
and what kind of deals do they have (plugs, lines, hooks, flies etc)?
Many tackle shops will be there and the prices are usually real good (and the odd shop stays high too
)
Is silly BM
, Sir Slip
, Saki man Habs
, Tattoo man
, and Mr. JohnR going
?[/b] I'll have a booth. Can't speak for the rest (cept when Habs needs people to speak for him
)
..... In a nut shell - it's 100 vendors & shops but 98% of just fishing and almost all saltwater. Lots of guides, some marine stuff, several reps, but mostly fishing. There are a handfull of big shops there including CMS (think Beachmasters
)and Hatteras Jacks! I have not been to the big NY show (this past weekend??) but compared to both Wooooster & Springfield, this show is far better for stuff & prices for FISHING gear. If you want a portable smokeless turkey frier you might want the other show
