Question to those who have been to the show in the last few years - do all the local vendors usually have booths there (including OEX)? It sure is nice to see all the products up close and personal without having to go from store to store.

Prices? If I'm in the market for some accessories, but not in a real hurry, is it worth waiting for the show?

Yes to your questions. OEX will probably have a really big display going, they did last year. I thought they also had quite a bit of accessories with good prices. Last year I took in a great seminar by Jim Sammons about catching big fish on a Kayak, that was really informative. Some will say the show doesn't have what it use to and some of the prices are high, but there are great deals to be had if you look and keep an open mind.

Is the March 24th date for here in Del Mar? Usually the Long Beach show is at the beginning of March. I've wanted to make the journey north to see that one. I may see if my dad wants to head up there.
