4th Annual Milwauke Muskie Expo Swap Meet and Social!

Staurday, Feb 11th, 7-10PM. Underwood Room, Best Western Midwy Motel, 1005 S Moorland Road, Brookfield, WI, 53005

Come and bring your baits, rods, reels, girlfriends, thirst. This year, we will be in the Underwood Room, down the hall and around the corner from Cali's. There will be tables and chairs for the swap, and a cash bar for the social. Cali's has live entertainment now, so we felt it was best to have the swap in our own room, and then go to Cali's after. See you there!

Shep....... my long lost buddy

Me thinks I'm going to change my schedule to spend the night in Milw. instead of going back home just so I can hang out with my old homies...

Mike...make sure Sanks and Bruce get the message.

I grew up down there... been to the show before... I'll be bouncing between the Hawgseeker, Frabill and a few other booths. Always good to see the folks I don't get see that often.

My shop is full of stuff I dont' use now, I need to clean out the corners to make room for more.

Not sure yet, I'll see as it gets closer...would be better if I stopped in to say hi to them on the way down and didn't have to worry about coming home and waking them in the middle of the night....

How silly...I'm in my early 40's and still worried about waking them when I come home... only now it's being considerate instead of sneaky like when I was 16... hehe.

Whatever works.... Will be good to hang out regardless of where I sleep.

I could put some of my pals up at the cottage. Shep has been there and Mark was going to come down and fish the opener last year or the year before.

Come on down, bring some baits and cash, lets have some fun !!!

I'll take you up on it, Mike!

I'll have some baits, and all my St Croix's for the swap. Well, all except for the rare Dave Dorazio custom.

My son (Duncan) had so much fun negotiating for lures with you guys, we are planning on traveling down from LaCrosse to the show and swap meet. He had an empty six pack full of lures. A good way for a 9 year old to fill his tackle box.

I can still eat Za, as long as it is in moderation. Does that answer your question, Toddler?

Todd, I am all in for that.
Shep, beer and pizza is good for you.
You can always jog back to the show if you eat too much and burn it off.

I am bummed, but I'll have to live vicariously through ToddM, Tuffy1, Shep, Extreme One, Fishi8 and the rest of you going to the swap this year. My loss

I just got into C&R Musky Club after a year wait and our banquet is the 11th. I probably should go, eh?! Will be at the show Friday afternoon/night and may make it back on Sunday for various reasons.

Have fun boys and girls. I'll be thinking of you. AND, remember, the definition of "moderation" is in the eye (stomach and liver?) of the beholder.

Me too, Steve. The best show, IMO, of them all. And the bait swap should be fun as usual, especially with our own hall to have it in.


I don't have a lot of baits to sell this year, but I will have 3 or four St. Croix rods to sell.

Hey Shep,

Shep, what are the lengths, etc. of the St. Croix rods you're bringing? Are they Premiers or Avids? I may be interested in one.

I loaded over 100 baits into three boxes last night. $10 or $5 will be the two prices I will be asking for the baits. Don't miss out, over 1/2 of them have neve been used.

Saturday at 7pm the frenzy will start.................
