May 23 Paddletales event
Next Saturday, the 23rd of May, we will be having a doo at Paddletales. This event will be in place of the doo we usually have at the end of April. That event got displaced by the seminar. I have not put in a request for company reps for this one, but we should have the Paddletales crew on hand to help you out. The Shimano Tech van will be here too with a full load of Shimano, Loomis, Jackall and Power Pro for you to see. We are also working hard on some sale items to make your trip out worth while. I will post more on this later in the week.
The doo will run from 9.00 am to 4.00 pm, and I've heard there will be chicken in attendance from 11.00 am to 2.00 pm.
Again, more details will be posted this week. Hope to see you out.

Re: May 23 Paddletales event
I'm a beginner angler. I was thinking of taking the drive out on Saturday if the weather is nice. Hopefully there'll be some cool information for me too. I'm thinking of bringing my wife along for the trip from Ottawa. Since it's a bit of a drive would anyone recommend recommend anything to stop and see / do along the way out / back? Recommend a bit of shore fishing if you like, along with any scenic roads to take, places to stop and walk around, places to grab a snack etc.

Re: May 23 Paddletales event
I hardly find it a long drive but I do it every day living 10 minutes from Paddletales and working in Ottawa.
Not really much to do coming this way as a stop but if you want a scenic drive, Take river road down to Kemptville and hang a left (its actually a round about) heading east to Winchester. Its about the prettiest drive out this way. Otherwise Bank street/Highway 31 is probably the fastest route.

Re: May 23 Paddletales event
Dave, I hear the chicken is amazing, haven't had a chance to get out for it yet though. If that's not your thing, there's a few chip huts along the way. You could keep going South on 31 and stop at the cheese house, or keep going to Morrisburg, there's a chip hut beside the dock there and it's a nice enough place to walk around, although that could just be nostalgia, having grown up in the area...

Re: May 23 Paddletales event
There is also a relatively new dress shop owned by a local lady called Main st clothing. Probably a very different experience than shopping in malls. The upside if your wife buys some clothes, she can't complain about your tackle purchases. Just sayin..........
What area are you coming from Dave?

Re: May 23 Paddletales event
As a beginning angler, the drive from Sandy Hill may seem long. As you get more into it, the drive becomes shorter. Trust me on this one. lol

My wife used to come along for the tour from Renfrew just for the ice cream when you had it. I'll have to tell her about this dress shop. Jon

I'm thinking of starting a petition to get Ed to bring back the ice cream machine.

Re: May 23 Paddletales event
For this Saturday, we have lots and lots of rods and reels on sale with pricing to turn your head. For Renegade members, Shimano and Loomis purchases qualify for the contingency programs as well, even those on sale. Lots of new stuff in stock as well. Great selection of Yama frogs from Yamamoto, S-Cranks from Megabass, Maxquatro line from Power Pro, and lots more.
The Shimano Tech van will be here too. Please note, this is not a repair van but for display of Shimano, Loomis, Jackall and Power Pro products. Tom Brennan will be with the van to answer your questions.
As usual at our doo's, tax will be included in all regularly priced merchandise with the exception of electronics and trolling motors. The world famous fried chicken will be served as well from around 11am until 2 or so.
These events are a great social event as well as a sale. Come on out and renew old friendships and talk some fishing. It'll be a blast.
p.s. The ice cream is still available across the street
