It's a great show. My son and I go every year and will continue to in the future. The vendors always chat it up with my son and I know he loves that !@stillfishing was nice enough to mention to my son he had seen his videos on YouTube, after he walked away my son started calling himself a rockstar. Made his night. Maybe when he gets older we will hit the seminars. It's nice to put some faces to names / brands and see new gear or gear you've been considering. And of course I always spend a bunch at the A-Tom-mik booth.....
