MSBA Show

[Steve K]

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.

I had a great time at the show as usual and I think MSBA did a fantastic job pulling it off, it definitely a huge undertaking and you guys did it will. I do have to agree about the lack of a few vendors that were there last year though, but a lot of my favorites were still there!

Good to see all you S-B dudes as usual! Nice to meet the Saltybuggar himself (thanks for the eelskin plugs!!) and BigFish, I can't wait to swim the spook...errr...blitz seeker!

see you guys at RISAA!
