I'll be going Saturday afternoon. There are deals to be had you just need to ask around and look. I know people that if the deal isn't right in their face they get mad. Each year I come with a bunch of stuff for very little money. I'll be checking out the kayak stuff big time this year. In years past I would glance over it but not really buy, this year may be different.

I took a "long" lunch break today to go have a look around. I wasn't really scouting for deals since I stocked up at the Long Beach show. Fisherman's Landing has Seeker Black Steels (gold guides) for 1/2 price. Turner's has some Graftech rods on sale. Cheap leadheads at Lead Masters. OEX has stuff on sale - you can't miss them, they in the primo spot.

Is admission for one day only?

I would like to go for a couple of hours tomorrow and again on Sunday. Does anybody know if I'll have to pay twice?

I worked it yesterday at OEX, La Jolla Kayak Fishing and Reebs Lures. It's actually kind of nice that the economy hit some of the Sham Wow sellers. It's more like a Fishing Show than years past. It was pretty quiet yesterday. Brent and Ric have some sweet deals if your in line for a new yak. Mike Ryba is making some killer Bass Jigs, he is at Ken's Reel Repair. If you are a newbie too the sport and looking for a guide you can go talk to Jim Sammons at La Jolla Kayak Fishing. Jim, Morgan, Hobie Tom and others will be giving daily seminars if you have intersts. I'm gonna take my son on Sunday to fish some trout and hopefully buy som swag. See you up there.

I went on Wednesday. I was a little disappointed. There was not much new to look at and many of the "deals" were underwhelming. There were some decent deals on a few big ticket items.

I was looking for some reasonably priced braid and found only regular prices. Why is this stuff so expensive?

You'll have to pay twice, but you'll see a lot of deals on Sunday. People don't want to take the inventory home so they knock off major prices. Each year I have walked away with a lot of gear for very little money.
