I agree / I was there only a short time /

but a great location , excellent food .

I enjoyed seeing old friends .. don,t think I met any new ones / I was very low keyed ;

Dave,
Thanks for showing how you load the Cordell Pencils with lead shot. Just goes to show you that you can teach old dogs (like me) new tricks.

I don't think we'll find a better more central place.

Yes I did enjoy myself at plugfest, but it went by too fast.

maybe they will let us start earlier and stay later next year

Thanks for coming Dave and thanks for doing that demo, naturally I couldn't sit for more than 4 minutes getting called away twice.

We'll do it all over again next year

Right New Jack, always a pleasure to see the legend Stan Kuzia and Carl too.

I don't think it could of been much better. Great exhibitors, good location, good way to spend a late winter's day. Steve's spirit lives on.

Good to see you Dave, and good to see everyone else.....I had a great time and my girl did too. She thinks im much more normal now..lol....j/k....but it was great, got to meet a few new faces and seen some amazing work on some really great plugs.....very inspiring and man to be honest with all the fishing i do all year I'm usually good with the good bass fishing starting up in May, but after plugfest...I just cant wait....... Thanks to all those at S-B that put it together, it was definitely a great way to spend the day and congrats to all those that had plugs for show....and a special Thanks to Numbskull for the plugs...I can't wait to throw them...already got hooks on them and ready to go.

Thank You
