I've always liked that big saltwater fish tank they have there. I find it interesting that the Spotties lay around on the bottom waiting for room service while the Calicos and Sand bass are always moving...

I'm planning on going to the Long Beach show this year on either Friday or Saturday with my brother. Years past I have always went there but last year I went to Del Mar since I was out of town for the Long Beach show. Was not overly impressed with it size compared to Long Beach (much larger). This year I think there will be some good travel deals. Hope to see/meet some of the BWE crew there.

I like going on the last day because many of the sellers don't want to pack things up, the would rather sell them.

Going to the SD Fred Hall. Question on the Seminars.

Seems that Seminars are in at least 3 different areas, and I could spend my entire day at seminars. How long are they typically? Do they overlap? Example: seminars by 3 sponsors starting at:

Fin-Nor 3:45pm
Triton 4:00pm
Shimano 4:30pm

Seems that I may have to pick and choose what I want to see.

Seminars are all day, some repeat throughout the day. I noticed in Long beach this year the seminars were cut in half to only 30 minutes I think I remember them being longer in the past.
Basically get the program and highlight all the seminars you want to see then find the conflicts in time and find another showing.

Looking at the schedule, it appears that they are as follows:
45 minutes at the Fin-Nor 3:45 - 4:30
60 minutes at the Triton 4:00 - 5:00
30 minutes at the Shimano 4:30 - 5:00

Looks like you will have to pick one!

Where did you find the length of each seminar?

If you go to this page on the Fred Hall site. http://www.fredhall.com/pages/san_diego/seminars.php
You can click on each seminar area and get the seminar schedule for that stage. It looks like most of them at the Fin Nor seminar area, which is where the kayak seminars are, are 45 minutes.

We will be there, love how they schedule the fishing show on the lad's birthday weekend, so nice of them...

Hey Mr. Ed Whited, remember back in the day seeing us rolling through the line, me on the skateboard and Clay in the 4-wheel drive stroller? Makes me grin ear to ear when I think of how much you dug that...

Always a good time in DM...can't wait to see Clay work the Bongo babes again...

And any vendors on here working the show, kick down some b-day chit for the boy beyotches...

And don't forget to sample the jerky...over and over again...

Go to their web site and pick the Del Mar show. Then select seminar & site (Shimano....), the times are given under that.
