Show Question
Question on the Connecticut Marine Trade Association Saltwater Sportfishing
Show.Has anyone ever attended this show ? Is it worth the long ride to the
Hartford Civic Center or is it just another area show?
Any feedback would be appreciated as I have an option of this show or a
local show to attend in Asbury Park N.J.
Looking forward to the sound of a screaming 6/0 from the back of the boat.

Irv,
I attended one two years ago. My recollection is that the show
focuses primarily on salt and the overwhelming majority of exhibitors
are boat salespeople. As I was in the market at the time, I found
it worthwhile. I have not returned, nor will I, since purchasing
my boat. Unlees, you're looking for a (new) boat, my suggestion
is to go local.

The reason the show is mostly salt water is because it is called
The Connecticut Saltwater Sportfishing Show. Save the commute.

Stick to Asbury...if the show's a dud, at least you can watch the
surf at Convention Hall.
BTW: Betty+Nicks are running show prices until the end of the Month.
Most plugs are at least 25% off, so are reels.

I guess I'll stay in the home state and spend the toll money on
some tuna clones(green and yellow work great)at the Asbury Park
show.
Thanks for the replys.
