great show

It's taken me all winter, but I finally got my paws on some Hab's needlefish!!! Man after handling the plugs for awhile I can see why there is such hype!!!!! Great stuff!

Too bad to hear guys got ripped off.

Sometimes people are slobs

What is it with THEFT? It is really sad to hear about this. I think anyone who steals from a fisherman is risking serious injury...

The lil' reel I got at the show comes in different colors...I asked him for a gold reel..."Sorry, I had them but someone stole several of these and now I have to tie down the others to a cage." That is friggin sad.

What would you do if you came back to your truck and there was some guy either trying to steal a rod off the roof or digging thru your stuff inside?

I don't want to see Penn's latest wares---what I want to see from Penn is more of their old, proven wares and less Asian-made junk

Since they are stolen, hopefully those lures never catch a single fish. But knowing how effective Hab's lures are, I doubt that. A shame when your stuff isn't even safe at a fishing show. Hopefully there will be no side effects regarding vendors' procedures at the MSBA show.
Came back to my car back in college after fishing in a remote part of Dartmouth. The 3 kids thought they were gonna be able to take me until my boy S&W popped out and I gave them the option of getting in their car and leaving or seeing if they could dodge bullets. Forunately they left and I called the police to report the incident and their plate #.

Ya - I knew who you were - took a sentence, but I was trying to remember your first name - which I believe is G.. Met you this fall over at NR . Also figured I'd give your other half the benefit of the doubt and not call you Blackeye

Yeah, it'd have to be pretty damned embarassing to have the Mrs. come home to find ya strumming the old cod to some pictures of plugs

Hey, not that it's ever happened to me....no, really, never....I swear.

Honest.

Sorry to hear that Habs. I know what its like to have stuff stolen and I remember how pissed off I was for a while afterwords. Hopefully you can get the guy and if not at least there will be some bad luck following those poppers. I met you on Friday at the show and if the guy is from Jersey consider me a hired gun
