I can't make it this year (crying face) anyone got the skinny on things like show colours etc from Todd C etc.. It would be nice to know what I'm missing or can get others to get for me.

I will not personally be there (the wife is ready to pop any day now), but Muskie Mojo will have a booth.

We will have custom color Weagles and Wabulls, Baby Weagles and Wabulls, Double and Triple X's, and the all new Silicone Triple X. Might have a few more surprises there as well if I can find the time to get them done.

Stop in and say hi to Slamr and Lambeau who are nice enough to hold down the fort for me while I stay on high alert close to home.

I will be there on Friday, picking up a custom rod from Keith. Last year I only bought one lure, this year shooting for zero.
I finally have to agree with my wife....don't tell her though. I have enough lures. Just adding Keith's stick and a reel or two to my arsenal.

I'll be there Saturday. Looking forward to seeing everyone, looking forward to the seminars, the swap meet, a few cold ones after the show, and the bag of lures I'm going to go home with. Only planning on buying a couple things. Of course I said that last year and would up going home with two bags of stuff!

Fishing Pool will be there and we have 5 new baits on show for the first time plus loads of custom painted colors.
Our Swedish and German distributors are going so if you fancy fishing for big Pike in the Baltic Sea they're the guys to sort it.

See you there, Phil

I will be there and in my booth near the exit...same as last year. Make sure to say hi.

I am going to bring a bunch of stuff. Custom Diamondbacks, St Croix XXXH and the 8 foot Tournament, Bronzeback line and much more.

Couple new things. I am bringing 15 custom sticks along that are a new blank I received yesterday. I am going to sell the first 15 for $129. Fuji gold guides and the big cork. There will be a mix of 7-6 and 8 footers all purpose blanks.

The “Crook” will be making its first appearance in Chicago. It is a new bait that I used this year. I will post a picture when we get closer to Chicago.

Merry Christmas

Those "Ring Blings" as hulbert calls em are gonna smoke some big girls in the 2007 season. Went out with their creator for their virgin run, bout the 5th retrieve BAM they get their first 50 on the board. It wasnt more than 20 minutes later, i had to net a 47 caught on one of those baits. I figured they were done catching fish for the day, but nope had to throw another one in the boat just for the hell of it! haha You guys'll have to stop by mikes booth and check em out!

hmmm...a musky show. Sounds interesting. Is it a Vaudeville kind of deal with muskies singing, dancing, telling jokes, and performing little skits? Will there be a chorus line of big girls kicking up their fins?

I love a good variety entertainment show so count me in. If the musky show is a flop, there should at least be a few decent performances at this swap I keep hearing so much about. Let's just hope I'm not one of the guys giving one of them.

Kevin

Ho, Ho, Ho, Merry Christmas.

Since the little one came early, it looks like I will be able to attend the show after all. Good news since this gives me extra time to get stuff ready. I need that since the little one ate up some of that production time.

you better head over to Mike Hulbert's booth and check out the Musky Bling Spinnerbaits. they simply awesome. no doubt, big fish baits. i've seen them in action, i've seen them put the smack down on some truely big big fish...Kevin Cochran's Musky Blings will be the hottest safetly spin style spinner baits to have come out in a long time. They have produce from opener all way thru November...with big fish. I have see true gaints eat this bait..they cant say no on the figure 8 with this bait..
I cant make it to the chicago show until saturday morning. I hope there are some left for me..especially in the ODB custom color combos!!!!

As I was going thru my papers from last year's show, noticed neat idea one of my customers had. When doiing credit card, getting name, address, etc, he handed me a RETURN ADDRESS LABEL to affix to credit carbon papers.............it speeded up transaction and clarified necessary info..........would be good for special orders too......................stick a couple in your billfold. jw
