Posts: 793 Location: Delavan, WI | Yes, is there tables? I saw it's in the pool area, is this an organized event held with permission by resort, or just a bunch of guys showing up? Would hate to drive out for 2 hrs just to get kicked out in first 15 minutes Edited by muskymartin67 1/11/2020 10:28 PM | ||

Posts: 7056 Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Not my circus, not my monkeys, but I really really REALLY do hope whoever is coordinating this is in touch with the folks at Pheasant Run! *and if so, why not just ask if they can open up a ballroom for the event? | ||

Posts: 90 | As in you have to have a room at the hotel in order to go to the swap???? What kind of turnout will that be? Like 10 people ... | ||

Posts: 238 | Yes you have to have a room there. And that’s exactly the point they don’t want it crowded. Why should they let non paying customers use their building??? | ||

Posts: 461 | I highly doubt they will be asking individuals if they are guests. Ever see the bar area after the show? I'm a guest if I'm buying drinks. Swap on figure eighters. | ||

Posts: 20231 Location: oswego, il | They do the pool demo where the swap will be. Only a few watching or participating in the demo would be registered guests. I would think the swap would be no different. | ||

Posts: 93 | Slamr: "No swap this year." Guy with trunk full of lures: "Hold my beer." Yeah, this will go well. | ||

Posts: 461 | There is no need to run raffles, collect food and overcomplicate a lure swap. I commend Slamr for all his work over the last 84 years setting this up, but a guy with a trunk full of lures and a beer will probably be the guy I'm buying lures off of anyway. | ||

Posts: 20231 Location: oswego, il | It was very small but some good buys. One person had a bunch of LSC trolling baits and he was swarmed upon, could not get near the table for 20 minutes. Still managed to get 5 baits. | ||
