Thanks guys.

I like the workshops they have. You can never learn too much. I've sat through Monk's presentations at least three years now and I always pick up a little something each time. There are some saltwater workshops that are good as well. I printed out the schedule and have four one-hour sessions marked on Friday that I will attend. I will then spend a couple of hours looking at the boats and shopping for fishing tackle.

There are a couple of guys on this website that will be set up there. Both Monk and myself will be there. Monk deals in crappie supplies while I deal mostly in stripers and catfish. Both of us have rod holding equipment. I will also have Add-A-Seats this year and adapters for them. Monk does seminars for crappie while I do stripers and catfish. Check us both out in seminars and booths. We will both have deals. See ya there.

You have to come to the show and take a stroll down jig alley. I have been in this business for over (35) years and I have never seen a selection of jig heads as we have this year, colors, weights and hook sizes.

Your trip to Raleigh is worth while if you need crappie fishing tackle!
