I was at the show from about 10:00 to 12noon. It was a great show. I didn't attend any of the lectures, just walked around and bought some hooks, jigs ect. I saw some great looking vintage Penn reels. I almost took home a few but I had to stop myself.
I spoke to a woman at the NYS DEC table. There are 4 new proposed reefs. She told me the permit process for the 16 fathom reef, between Jones and Fire Island Inlets, is still active. I had thought the project was dead. That would be a great place for a reef!
I will be back next year for sure.

Another great show at the high school. Didn't spend much except on the raffles. A certain tailgate sticker and some other goodies followed me home though. Benny !!!

Good show, Benny it was nice seeing you again. Sorry, I was gone by 930. The guys I was with were looking to go after we walked around, so I couldn't stay. I did walk out with some Jigheads from Benny.

We have all the winning tickets taped to the raffle boards
The kids need to create a pdf with winners so we can organize for collection. I also have to secure a spot that will have someone available to check out the raffles during school hours and also schedule 2 nights for pick up
Once the winners are done, I will start by texting them tomorrow and calling the rest

I was at the show from about 10:30am to about 1:30. It was great running into some familiar faces and meeting some new ones. I had some kick ass street tacos from one of the food trucks.
I caught the Blackfish Seminar by the Orient Star boys
I stopped by and finally met BennyV
BTW…I love my hat!

Now I know the show is free. But if I may offer constructive criticism, the presentations in the LGI room gave the presenters a difficult situation. They were in the dark, the audience was in the dark and the presentations did not show up well in the screen. I am not sure if they can fix this.

Usually one of the students jumps up and fixes the lighting in the LGI room. I recall in 2020 John Skinner had to practically have the young man stand at the switches. I only viewed parts of three seminars in the auditorium Saturday.
Every day is Saturday.

There was a student there, who basically was at a loss to fix it. No criticism for him. He did the best he could with the situation. Maybe speak to presenters in the room for feedback. I know Captain Doug Tobak kept putting up slides no one could see.
