Spent waaaay more than I intended, yet, had a great time meeting some of NE's finest plug builders. Met Mr. Salty and Mr. SurfAsylum, cooooool dudes. Really enjoyed talking to the men behind the magic. Hey Dave, I still want one of those Slopokes like Luds48 has, pleeeeeeez
?
Also, Scott cain't wait until your Summer/Fall run of the Fat Heads. By all means will ya pm me sose I can reserve 3 colors. Thanks for the Blem. Wouldn't that be a beetch iffin I catch all me lahhhhge on the blemished one? Will let ya know.
The best part of the whole show for me waz listening to Charlie Cinto and meeting and actually having a sit down with another of our legendary surfcasters, the inimitable Janet Messineo. What a hot pistol she is. Funny, down to earth, listens, and reeeeeely talks to ya. She was so interesting, very impressive with her knowledge, but I walked away dumbfounded. What a kind soul, kindred spirit, and one helluva fisherman.
She's going to start a surfcasting guide service for the Vineyard this season, I think. Notsomuch about spots, though she'll put ya on feesh, but more about the deeper and more intrinsic values that one must hone in order to fish
for a lifetime, as well as land the fish
of a lifetime.
Loved being at Gillette...........Tha Razahhhh waz a little bit iced over, but that still is one beeee yooo teee fulll stadium. What did anyone else think?
Didn't waste any dough on the food, as I knew already that waz gonna be outrageous. Picked up some discounted insulatory stuff (Atom's, STORMS, Gamakats, Spro jigs), but no Dacron and not much line discounts to speak of.
Hope all had fun, and maybe I'll catch some of youse guys at RISAA, sposed to be feeshnominal, mates!
