The Fishing Show


THE FISHING SHOW
I had an excellent time at the fishing show yesterday visiting with the good folks at Gulf Coast Connections/TSF, Brown Lures, Lone Star Outdoor News, Fishing Tackle Unlimited, Full Stringer Lodge,and Tran Boats among many others. I thoroughly enjoyed working the Laguna booth for a short while.
What the show has to offer and the amount of things to lay eyes on will probably take me back this weekend. I recommend taking a visit.
