Fred Hall review:
It's a little smaller this year. A lot of familiar faces. Thought I saw TonyG working a both, but couldn't really stop because he looked busy over there. Dropped a line at linecutterz and looked over their stuff. They have a new cutter that you can attach to just about anything. Looks like a good small add on for those of us who use trays. HUB had a huge presence again, and many other tube style baits were available. Saw a few more options for inflatables, most notably stand up paddle boards.

If you are in the market for new glasses, there seems to be a bit more stiff competition this year with a few booths that sell strikingly similiar glasses to costs.

Didn't see anything I wanted bad enough to splurge on (besides jerky). Got some $7 tshirts and called it a day.
Got a little star struck meeting alan tani for the first time and also phil friedman.

However, seems like a lot of booths were a little thread bare when I walked through. Seemed like they haven't finished setting up yet. Hope everyone else gets to see more than I did!

Kin it's like fishing. You get excited and then reality check. I'm meeting up with SPDan tomorrow, I'm sure we will have a lot to say. BTW, are any of the booths MASKED........ GT

alan tani is there?
Is he selling stuff or fixing reels before your eyes?

Very cool at any rate

Jerdon: I believe he was just walking the show. I bumped into him walking the isles. I honestly dont know if he was a guest of a vendor or if he was just there hanging out.

GT: Yea, it's definitely like fishing there. We go out in search of the good bites, but we end up settling for anything that's willing to play lol. None of the vendors had face masks, but many of them had hand sanitizers and nitrile gloves on. Hell, I only two people walking around with masks...one was actually medical grade and the other was just wearing a bandana over his face. Take it however you want, but I don't think it's an issue, seems like everyone is very aware of the situation.

Hey Kin,
Thank you for the thorough Fred Hall show review.
It’s not like I need anything neither but I do enjoy walking around and bumping into ol’ familiar faces as well.

Looks like I will be going on Saturday, maybe late afternoon with the wife.

Saturday i am be there. Morning time
