Went this evening, had some nice deals.

Puglias booth had some good deals.
Matrix Shad and Craws 50 for $15
Matrix Mullet 2 for $10
Abu Garcia Revo X for $89.99 with a free Varitas Rod
Rattle Traps for $2
13 Concept Reels buy the reel get a free pole

Red Alert had some nice wire popping corks $5 each and
Topwater/Suspended baits 2 for $5

Overall it was okay. Lots of nice mudboats. Very few bay boats. I went for the fishing stuff so I didn't pay too much attention to the hunting stuff.

Im going today, how much were tickets at the gate? They were selling them online but Ticketmaster was tacking on like $12 in fees on a $12 ticket so I didn’t buy on principle.

I did the same thing. For that much money I’ll just order the baits I wanted to to buy off the internet.

The Puglias booth also selling Daiwa Tatula SV’s at 169.99 and that comes with a free Daiwa Huk shirt.

I’m by far a Shimano guy, but just bought the Tatula SV and have been really impressed with that reel. Feels more like a $300 reel when you cast it.

Go to stock up on corks and Matrix Shad if anything.

Lots of hunting stuff for sure. I don’t really hunt anymore, but they had tons of hunting booths.

I decided not to go because of paying 15 to park. I don't mind the $12 to get in, but screw the high priced parking.

I went today. Alot of appealing booths. Much better than years past. The Marker 54 shrimp looked interesting. Bought some suspending hard baits from the ChickenBoy booth. Looked alot like the old bingo lures and had good action.

Statue removal wasn't cheap. City has to pay for the firemen OT somehow.
