Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | All I can say is that its a great show and its always good to put more names with faces here at the shows. DaveP, DaveJ, Bukes, kevin, Shep, Withdoctor, Luke_Chinewalker, etc. etc. etc. all stopped by today.
The hats are going like hotcakes and everyone seems to be having a great time. Howie (7Islands) is only going to be here for a few hours tomorrow....so if you can PLEASE stop by and say hi! |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Glad it's going well, Slamr. We are setting up the banquet here, so that's ANOTHER great meal you miss. Oh well, I'm sure Mike's company next door makes up for it! |

| Just got back from the show. Had a good time. Saw Slamr and Howie. Was plesently surprised to Grant and Lorrette there in their booth. We talked about the upcoming outing(More on that later). Was great to see Musky Fever. Greg Was wishin he Battling the Beast with the nice weather. Brian and Ty were working the baits in the tank.
Laura got a new hat! Matt is always eating!
We could have left around 1:00 PM, but DaveJ just had to ride the horsey. That's all that was on his mind from the time he saw that dang thing. I knew if I didn't give him a quarter to ride it, he would pout all the way home! He did a good job, and almost fell off only once.

| Shep, about the horse thing.....most of my adult life I've dreamed of being a jockey, BUT at 6'3" 230lbs, I couldn't find any work. So rest assured with one well spent quarter that chapter of my life is now behind me.
May can't come soon enough! |

Location: oswego, il | Went to the extreme show saturday and sunday afternoon. I even squeezed in the auto racing memorabilia show on sunday morning to relive some childhood memories. I had a great time. Learned a new game, it's called "what if?". All my demos are gone now, I am ready to FISH! |

Location: Chicago, Beverly | The show wasn't too bad at all... I went friday, met a few people from around here(Slamr, Musky Fever, Musky Girl, Ty, Laura, Cady...), bought a few things and won even more with the end of the night prize drawing. All I had to do were answer some of Matt Thompson's questions....pretty easy.. I ended up with a 150yds spool of 65lbs Power Pro, a 6 pack of Storm Bass/Walleye lures(I can use them to catch Musky bait..), a Skitter Critter by Odyssey lures, and a Ukko Wobbler jerk bait... |

Location: Woodstock, IL | Enjoyed the show and figure it will probably grow considerably over the next few years. While it didn't have nearly as many booths as other shows, I appreciated the fact that we weren't elbow to elbow with everyone.
Picked up a MuskieFirst hat and mug, a St. Croix rod and a 6" phantom. |
