25th Annual East Bay Anglers Expo - Mike Laptew & Crazy Alberto

[JamesJet]

I am pumped to go and to put some faces to names. Should be a great time.

[quick decision]

John nice talking to you again.
I had a great time at the show. Mike and Albertos presentation was great! I even won the door prize. Nice rod and reel, and picked up a yellow Gibs darter at the rafle. All in all a nice way to spend a cold Sunday afternoon.

[JohnR]

Ian, good to see you & your son there. Glad you hit the prize. And no, I will not shake your hand

Mike and the Crazy One put on a great show - as always, a big thumbs up to those guys......and thanks for getting the blood going on a frigid afternoon

Good motivation to start the new year and go through my checklist for the coming season

I'm anxious to get the DVD Mike has coming out in February - the footage of the albies cruising in formation in slo-mo was incredible

Ran into - JohnR, Johnny Habs Jr who I heard is gonna have his website active pretty soon......and Uncle Pt Jude Joe who was getting blitzed at the Pt Jude table......and the rest of the Usual Suspects, too

Sat through the seminar with piemma and picked up an excellent autographed print from Alberto - yup, it was a great afternoon...

Good time Chuck. Good meeting Mac also. Real gentleman.

[JohnR]

Yes, good time had by all - thanks to EBA and Will Barbeau for putting this all together

[Crazy Alberto]

Good morning JohnR and the rest to the Striped-bass clan… I just want to say that I had a great time and it is always a pleasure to shoot the breeze with my old buddies (and meet a few new friends). Laptew’s presentation was great and I am also glad I had the opportunity to display the new Tactical Anglers clips.

All in all, thank you Will Barbeau for having me.

First time I ever saw someone take the time to send a thank you note with the tickets.

The stage set up was great and how fast they handled the door prizes at the end.

Same her Ian. I didn't even know you were there until I checked the Board this morning. I left the house early yesterday for some errands before the show.

Next time for sure and this coming Fall either The Block or Montauk and we'll drag Chuck with us.
