We will be having the swap meet at Bebops in Blaine Sat 3/8, bebops is located only a couple miles from the show. This year they have moved us to other side, which will give us more room to display tackle. The official time is 7-9pm, and they will have bartender and waitress for us on staff starting at 6pm for those that want to come early and eat.

Also a famous WI Musky Lake band will be playing on Saturday at BeBops, Eagle River Band, will start at 830 til Mid, they are a country/rock band, and there is no cover charge.

There will be no tickets or bands this year. Just a good old fashion swap meet, still trying to get may some silent auction stuff going for the future MN 50";s.

I just threw a bunch of lures into a cardboard box and am planning on making it as well. Should be a good time.

Thanks Kap. Funny looking bait is the Muskie Treat. McPerch.
That specific one is somewhere stuck in a muskie's lip or on the bottom of Leech thanks to a friend who didn't know you have to slide the snap through the hole and latch it over the top wire. What yah gonna do!

We had fun also at the swap, ( our first) came away with a few things left a few things. We will be making the swap a yearly event for sure. After the expo a few more things seem to have found there way into the good bye box to make room for new stuff.

It was the first of many swap meets for myself. What a great time. The flier was well done Mike. Lots of baits to be bought, with brand new ones and also vintage lures by Le Lure and Len Hartman. Lots of funny drunk people too. One guy in particular was a blast to hang out with. I don't want to mention any names, so I'll just say his last name rymes with Flow-Bee. See you next year.
