Location: Hopefully on the water | Coming over for the show and wondering if anyone has any info or set up for the swap meet this year. I see in the past it has been at O'Gara's. Is it the same place this year and what time? Also is there any admision cost or food drive going on for it? Thanks for any input in advance and hope there is still going to be one. Whoever is organizing this thanks for putting it together. |

| That time of year again,,The I cant remember how many years annual Swap meet after Georges Muskie Expo will be held again sat April 10th 7pm till most likely closedown has in past years at
O'Garas on the corner of Selby and Snelling in St Paul,,,in the Shamrock room
Bring Your muskie rods, reels, baits, and anything muskie,,even a boat in the parking lot,,swap,sell,buy or just come hang out,,,we usually draw between 150 + in attendance and get quite a bit of intrest from the packed saturday night general bar crowd walking through,,,,no charge rooms paid for, has usual get there early to grab the very valuable table space.
O'Garas is one of St Pauls most well known bars theres free parking behind and also in the bank parking lot across the street both have staffed security.
There will also be two bands there "Scary Numan" and "Sweet Stachie" both are 80's cover bands with pretty good reviews,Young guys may want to change out of their fav musky shirt in the parking lot and shine up I know of one well known pro who runned and gunned up and down the floor and converted a follow last year.
Come early food is great.bring the kids,even the expo show owner brings the family. in fact O,Garas will be the hangout every night from thurs -sat if your at the show with a three day pass |

Location: Maple Grove, MN | I don't think the Walleye color necessarilly looks like a Walleye to a Muskie. For all we know, it may look like a bullhead or carp. |
