Location: Cedarburg, WI | If anybody has contemplated going but decided not to (for whatever reason)...I don't know how how you could not get your money's' worth here. I've been attending them for a few years now, and always pick some info that has been of use the following season(s). The wealth of knowledge these presenters bring (and have all been willing to share) is "priceless". The pearls you'll pick up will long outlast the latest hot lure you stood in line forever for at the big shows. You won't be disappointed if you go. See you there. Don |

Location: MadCity Wisconsin | T3clay....Al Hutchinson is the instructor for the Muskie Rod Building Class. Information I received from coordinator Geoff Crandall is that the rod blanks are from St. Croix. I do not have info. on the length or action of the rods at this time. I will try to get more information for you soon. If the muskie rod building class is successful this year we will bring the class back next year.
Thanks
