I'll be there. Typically we have between 75-100 anglers in attendance. It's a GREAT opportunity to network and meet potential sponsors. There are usually several industry reps there like Mercury, Evinrude, Fin-tech, Offshore, etc, and the major tournament organizations are usually represented too- AIM, FLW, MWC. If you are interested in competitive angling, it's a no-brainer.
