Kodiak> I'm glad to hear that the show was a great success for you. As far as us knuckleheads goes, we all tried to pitch in to pull our economy out of the doo doo hole it's currently in. I even almost bought a new rod by a recommendation from Bob Bartholow(at the Shimano stand), but I'm glad I didn't as it would have been hard to explain back at home...
We all know whose fault the economic crisis is, but he apologized for it so we're cool now. Hell, we even let him drink a couple of Ambers at the show
The highlight of the show for me was meeting the owner of Poulsen Cascade Tackle (makers of twist tech) and the Gerber stand
There's also this tackle company in Vancouver, WA that makes those UV jigs> Rainbow Tackle or smthg. Those are some mighty cool jig heads, I can't wait to try them soon...
Rob> I know you're reading this> thanks again for all the hardware, you're the man!
Kodiak>Thanks again for the tix and let's keep in touch...
Oh, and man that pool of trout was the stinkiest of all stinks in the whole world. I felt sorry for all those parents that had to stay in line along with their kids.
