This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Tones of Musky gear to be had :D I got to our booth about 2:30 and it was packed it was shoulder to shoulder all around the arena. I hope its the same tomorrow.

I was there for 9:00am and by the time I left the line up to get in was huge. Get there early guys and leave before it gets crazy.
When hell freezes over, I'll be there icefishing!!!

That's probably why I made it out the door without buying anything, not even a chipwagon poutine. :shock: :oops:

Nice to finally be able to shake your hand Musky51. :)

Yeah that musky replica is amazingly big. It's really cool how it's mounted.

i found it ok yesterday,, was going to go today, but when my father and i saw the amount of people there, we just turned around.

i got some great deals and bad deals.
only comment i have is to look at everyone's prices before you buy anything.
you can buy one thing for $10 one place and buy the exact same thing across the arena for $5! :shock:
its not the fisherman that catches the fish,, its the gear,,,

or is it the other way around? oh well...

Yeah i got myself a new musky rod as well as some musky lures and a few top water baits for bass. And like everyone has been saying it was a mad house their this morning,got soaked waiting inline and once inside it was packed as well. you could hardly walk around some of the booths,meet some old friends as well as some new ones, all in all it was a pretty good day.

Was there this morning and most of the afternoon. Had a great time with the Moose tagging along. Picked up the new reel and found a heck of a deal on a St Croix Legend Bass Tourney at Ed's booth. Met up with Snag and delivered the "goodies". Hope you nail a big one with them.

Spent about $250......and it was remarkable that I actually found something that wasn't for muskie... :lol:
