PCS Show
The Pacific Coast Sportfishing show at the OC Fairgrounds was this weekend and it was the best show yet by Bill DePriest and company...
There was probably three times the normal attendance and participation from the Sportfishing industry. It's primarily a saltwater fishing show with some really comprehensive seminars by different panels of pretty knowledgeable skippers and guides... I was there representing Hobie and we had lots of interested anglers of all ages checking out the kayaks... We even had the 4 person inflatable party barge, the "Fiesta"... The Fred Hall show is coming up soon but we won't be offering any demo rides at the lagoon this year...the vendor list is looking pretty slim this year with lots of major players deciding to attend the PCS show rather than the FHS... There's a rumor that Andy at OEX is planning a DEMO day soon at his Sunset Beach store... I"ll be there to help you get on the water in an Outback or a PA if you're looking for a new kayak or you just want to experience the Hobie Mirage Drive...

It looks like Hobie had a good display for the show. Had it been a couple of weeks earlier, coulda woulda gone.
Even if one isn't shopping, the fishing seminars merit attendance. If I can learn just one new subtlety at each workshop, vale la pena. Pre-Covid IFGA sponsored seminars at most of the major Florida boat shows, but that has dried up. Last weekends Miami Boat Show had no seminars. |
