I was disappointed with the show this year due to fewer vendors than in the past. I also did not find the bargains that I have found in the past. I was really surprised by how few reel and rod manufacturers were there. No Van Staal, lamiglas, AquaSkinz, etc... Penn was there and the really was about it. The Daiwa booth was a joke. I wanted to fondle the Daiwa Saltiga Surf but I did not see one there.
However, I did enjoy seminars by Flaptail and Eric Stewart. I wanted to hear Roy Levya but it was at the same time as the tuna seminar.
Please don't get me wrong, I am happy that I went to the show but I was disappointed by how few vendors were there compared to years past. I do realize that the weather played a part in this. It seems like manufacturers are choosing to go to the RISSA show instead.
