I thought the convention was very well organized and informative, and best of all, I met some really nice people.
I'll be back again next year, and bring my wife along. She'd enjoy it too.

Nice to meet you Brad!

You do awsome work my friend

Did anybody test knot strength for top shots, braids, etc? I remember some dogs were going to do this. I've been eagerly awaiting other peoples' results.

Brad, Thanks for coming and supporting us with your donation. :grin: I know Taylors viewpoint was absolutely thrilled to get it in the raffle :grin:

Paddler, we did some very informal testing of the spectra loop /finger splice.. there were 3 pulls that I saw and on all of the the mono broke at or near mid mono. no knot breaks at all. as far as the spectra failing grade on knots .. I dunno but that splice connection works super!!!

I agree whole heartedly. I was only able to stay down for the morning. Met a whole bunch of real nice people and sure did enjoy talking fishing. It has been a long time. This was done real well Bravo Zulu to the organizers. I had a great time. I will definately be looking forward to the next event and should be more prepared. Just wish I could have stayed for the whole event.
