I was there last year, lots of interestign stuff and good presentations. I bought a few spin n' glos because they were going really cheap. There are some deals to be had.

I mainly went there with the intention of "browsing."

The Sportsmen's Show has transformed from a "flea market" to a trade show. There will still be the odd booths where you can find good deals of course, but the show mainly targets those who wish to learn the new products in the fishing, hunting, country living market. Expect this year's show to be much bigger. Because of overwhelming number of exhibitors (over 300), they are expanding the show by having these big tents outside the building as well. The seminars will be fantastic of course, 6 different stages to choose from.

So who's going this year? ;)

Trout Slayer, CG, DW and I will be there most of the time, so stop by our booth to say hi.
