Thanks John and all for putting this one, had a great time meeting some people even if I don't turn wood.

Bigfish , my son loves that popper and is still debating whether to fish it or not, maybe the start of a collection.

Thanks also Steelhead for giving my son a sample, he's buzzin to tie one up!

My wallet got lighter after I left bears den !

Tell him to fish it....show me a pic of it hanging from a fishes maw and I will give him something special! They are great poppers....one of the other guys here got a 17 pounder on one on his first cast with it!

Thanks to you both again....glad he was pleased with the swap!

Wheeeww... What a day...

It went over 10 times better than I thought it ever could.

I know there have been 6000000000 thank yous already... but I have to take the time to thank these few guys AGAIN...

These guys made the seemingly daunting task of getting a few worthy presenters rounded up easy.

George/Numbskull - Thanks, I don;t know if you realize how thorough and informative your demo was.

Dennis/DZ - I think the best compliment I can give you for the needle presentation is that it gave me a painful itch to go fishing.... it seriously HURT! Thanks

SteelHead - Great demo, very thorough I heard more than a few guys saying that they learned a lot from your demo.

Freak/mike - I know what its like to be a floundering idiot , I missed your demo but I heard it was awesome, thanks for shedding your fears for the sake of a buch of dusty fishermen.

Bruce - Thanks for the AYC and for almost letting us get away withough paying. I thinnk on behalf of slip and I ---- who's planning Plugfest '07??? 1--2---3 NOT IT!!

John - Thanks for everything.... this thanks goes deeper than yesterday... thanks for putting your time into this site for so many years and for putting up with all the crap... you have fathered a great community here and yesterday only served to prove it yet again.

Hey even Salty and I got along . Thanks Scott for the airbrush bottles

Thanks to everyone else that I forgot... oh yeah Thanks PAUL.

Can't wait until next year.... I'm planning my plugfest 07 entry right now Tagger so look out.....
