Guys I just can’t say enough to thank all those who made me feel welcomed. I had a great time at the show just meeting most of you and talking or having you bust my cojones (no names Chris L). I really look forward to fishing with some off you this year and trading stories, But just remember I don’t bait my own hooks!

blue oyster · 03-20-2005, 09:18 PM

great show , spent way to much money but still no habs needle fish

the on the hook semanar about fishing boston harbor and the islands was fantastic , worth the price of admission . my hats off to patrick , larry ,bob, and the rest of the crew for a job well done

Flaptail · 03-20-2005, 09:19 PM

I wanted to say thank you to Larry "Bigfish" Wentworth, "Basic" Patrick, Van and all the rest of the MSBA gang for having me. It was just an awesome weekend. Hope you got a little something from my talk. Too many names to mention but you know who you all are that I thouroughly enjoyed meeting and yakking with. It's nice to be able to sit down with folks of your "own" kind now and then, fishing folk that is. I got to go fishing with Cpt. Roger Jarvis this year. Talk of "too many haddock" makes me

that guy is awesome and still doing it at 72. Speaking of still doing it how about Stan Kuzia, one of the last living legends of the old time bassmen, still fishing at 82 and making plugs again to boot. I hope you had time to talk with him and I think my best memory of the whole weekend was introducing RoyL to Stan. Seeing the old guard and the new exchanging ideas was awesome. Well, now I got to get serious and clean up a lot of tackle to get ready. A month from tomorrow I will be catching Striped Bass and a month goes by really fast. Good luck and tightlines to you all and thanks again for making me part of this past weekend.

Tagger · 03-20-2005, 09:28 PM

BigFish · 03-20-2005, 10:12 PM

Where to start. Thanks to all the MSBA crew for putting together a great show. The Hard work payed off. Glad I got to meet some familiar faces again and meet many more great people. Way to many to list. Thanks to Clammer for keep Star busy and let me do my thing.

Thanks BF for the Howdy.

Flap great presentation I just wish I was around 20 years ago. Although I fish Monomoy regularly from a boat I can't wait to hop in the Surf and try those tactics you showed.

John it was a great idea having the booth. I could have stayed there all day. I think I did.

The Point Jude Bros. great talking to you 2 and any questions send me a PM.

MikeCC thanks again and thank Barbara(sp?) for keeping my wife happy.

Slipknot · 03-21-2005, 08:04 AM

It was a blast on Sat. fun turning wood with Steve and Dave. I love that chisel CS. Nice job on that baricade Larry

JohnR, thanks again for that striper pin you gave Jenna. And thanks go out to Kadir for the hat and shirt he gave Jenna, she wore them both to school today

And another thanks to Craig from Van Stall for the hat

Yes Flap, I was also impressed with Stan Kuzia still at it at 82

and I got to introduce NIB to him. Stan said he has some very old wood that John Gibbs gave him and he is wondering how he should seal it, I guess it's VERY dry birch I think. He forgot more about jigging and plugging the canal than I will ever know.

Good seeing all you knuckleheads Sat. and putting some new faces with some names.
I missed Gene's seminar, maybe he'll do it next year too.

Larry, you are a madman, great job organizing the whole thing.

Oh ya, and Larry, I hope Bruce Miller from Canal Bait didn't get in trouble for not having his nametag necklace Sunday

, he gave it to Jenna after the show

chris L · 03-21-2005, 09:05 AM
