I don't go anymore cuz there are to many outfitters and not enough fishing
items. Not worth the drive or $$$.

[SPEEDBEAD]

I'll be going just for something to do.

Look at all the boats I can't afford, look at all the trips I can't afford...You know, that sort of thing.

I agree that they should have more in the fishing venue.

was there last year. not much in fishing, but not worth the entry price for the amount of fishing stuff. too many charters not enough boats and tackle

[haha]

If you go and if you stop at Bass Pro, there is a new Chinese buffet that opened where Fudrucker's used to be. Good stuff.

I'll be stopping by the Harrisburg show. Then the following week I'll head over to the Phila Sports Show. The Phila Sports Show was much better when it came to fishing last year. Harrisburg as always was great on the hunting front, however the Phila Sports Show seemed to have more fishing vendors. There were some really good deals there last year.

If you go to the Philly show, stop by the Megastrike booth and meet the owner, Bobby Uerig.

He is a crazy mofo, but harmless.

Tell him SPEEDBEAD sends his best. That should give him a laugh.

I really don't know.... I see the show is sponsored by Cabelas..... Not that it matters. I would email the contact at the link above to find out;

The past few years...well the past 15 years the show has sucked! I rememebr going as a kid and there were so many boats, fishing stuff, quads just everything. We would come home with more stuff and looked forward to it every year. now I go down there to buy fishing gear and it spend it all at Bass Pro instead!

I liek the buss going from bass pro to the show this way I scope out what I want prior to the show then come back and spend, spend, spend!!!!

[SPEEDBEAD]

Yes, they will. Saves you a couple bucks plus they usually hand out BPS coupons.

They added another bus as well so that the shuttle flows more smoothly.
