Title: Classic Day 1 Expo short version
Post by: Bigwrench on February 21, 2014, 10:16:34 PM
Our day started out pretty bad at the house !  Skunk sprayed one of our dogs  , somehow that stuff got into our entire house through an open door , sucked up into our heat pump intake ...  and our nightmare morning began at 5:30 !  We finally got to the Expo with a little under 2 hours till closing. We were able to walk around and get a feel for the layout
     We also got to meet JmGullo at the Dobyns booth . If your at the expo and are considering buying a Dobyns , you need to stop by the booth for an unbelievable deal on their rods :). . I got to buy some of the V&M lures at a great discounted price and got to meet Mike Pharr !
   So as promised here are a few pictures !
Schlich really liked this beauty !

Will try to get better coverage tomorrow , if theres anything you guys want more info on let me know
  It's unbelievable what all is here to see and do !   Tomorrow I'm going to delve into things a little more , hope to meet David Swendseid from DUO , Gary from Dobyns and Lee Smith is rolling into town tomorrow !!
We did get signed up for Livingston Lures $2000 worth of giveaways this weekend  , extended my BASS membership for 5 more years (at Schlichs urging ) and got a ton of cool stuff for that !  Gonna venture upstairs tomorrow for some of the other vendor booths and hope to be able to get some more posts for you guys

 Looks like you two are having fun! That sucks about the skunk but at least ya'll were able to get down there. Maybe the house will be aired out before you get home.

Very cool pics Rick! You might as well hook up the 521 and bring her home! I'm sure Forrest will work you a deal. I'm jealous.
