    Greensboro Expo

    It's nice meeting some of you guys at the Expo, Nathan Hooks, Nitro 750 ,speadtrap , skidmark and others. Thanks for stopping by. The show for us was pretty good but I can remember when this show was packed back in the 90's with Bass Boats, tackle and lots of fishermen. There was a few good deals to be found but probably not worth the entry fee and parking for most. Next year we will be going to Anglers Choice open house for sure ,probably not Greensboro.

    Good meeting you too! Our team had a good time this weekend at the show. Haven't been to this one before so I don't have anything to compare it to.

But is was nice meeting new folks and old friends as well.

    I think internet sales have killed the shows. Before a show was about the only way to find and discover these smalltime specialty and custom made lures and see the latest and greatest stuff. Now everybody and their brother sells tackle online and there are 50 gazillion articles and videos on the net showing this stuff in action and advertising it.

    How would A-rig sales be without the internet?
