I spent most all weekend as a volunteer! My son Raider/dogfish Leo was there 1 day also
I got home around 8:30 pm sun night,
had some dinner, took a shower, then fell asleep watching tv on my couch around 10m!
Now, I've been up since 2:00 am and I'm reading treads and posting some replies because I'm so over tired that I can't sleep!!!
I had a GREAT weekend!!!
I think it's going to be a pretty rough and LONG day at work monday!

I just wanted to say I had a great time this weekend. The volunteers that came are what made the show as great as it was in my opinion. Well, first and foremost, big props to BasicPatrick and Bigfish, these two put in so many hours making the show what it was and combine that with a great bunch of people from the MSBA that gave up thier weekend to make sure everything went off as best it could. Without the volunteers there would never even have been a show, these people deserve a huge round of applause. I really thought there would be many more volunteers in attendance, luckily the ones that did volunteer their time really stepped up and made the show what it was, terrific...
.
It was great putting a few more faces with names, insteed of just avatars in my head, lol...

There was just so much to see between the great seminars and demo's then add on all the tackle I was in fishin heaven...
Always great to see JohnR, got a chance to meet up with The Specialist, Slipknot, CS, and MAc. Sooo many, got a chance to talk with so many. I wish i had more time. Great meeting Ty19 and Starfish, wish I had more time to spend talking with you two...and no, none of the booty I had in my arms made it to my truck. But I did walk away with some shweet gear for this season...
Sorry if I missed anyone, I know I did, the names are streaming thru my head right now. But, it was great seeing all of you..
Again, big thanks to BasicPatrick and Bigfish, I appreciate all the work that went into making the show what it was, awesome.......
Hope to see some of the S-B crew soon, but, it will be on the rocks.............

Used hard and put away dirty....

It’s always worth the trip to spend time with quality people.

The Volunteers who man the MSBA events are second to none.

Patrick and Larry do consistently great job.

It is good to see the S-B.com boss (if your wife finds your new toy and you have to get rid of it fast, let me know!) having fun.

The S-B.com members are some knowledgeable dudes and dudettes! It’s great to put a face to the screen name… although next year you should wear name tags like me!

Ron Arra IMHO is a great ambassador of the sport; I can never spend enough time with him and feed of his enthusiasm for the sport

The Pt. Jude Guys, other than having a great product line (they bumped Hopkins and Charlie Graves out of my bags) are pure class

Next meeting april 1 in RI???

the full moon looks orange sometimes when it rises because the light has to pass through more of the atmosphere then when the moon is higher in the sky. the blue light waves scatter but the red light waves pass through...... if you were wondering.

Volunteers were awesome

Especially Squid Kids Dad and Swimmer. They were all over the place like a bad rash helping out. Oops.


Some people say fishermen are anti-social. Next time I talk to someone I'll ask their opinon, maybe.

One more thing, I saw a HABATTACK

For those of you who didn't make it. I was witness to a reel life HABATTACK at M & D's booth. Mike, his wife, and daughter had all they could do to keep up with the Habs request. Of the first forty guys to enter the show 39 went straight for M & D's booth. I thought we were going to have to hire a detail officer for crowd control. Great plugs obviously being sold by a real nice guy.

Thanks again to the volunteers for MSBA.

You folks are truly outstanding!...

This was a great year.

Glad to have met some members from the board I haven't spoken with...

Nightfighter...

Yes, the BL Simulator products were very well received amongst the boaters and should do very well... Thanks!
