I think there would be lots of interest on reading the water, structure, tides and currents, and how they affect your decision on bait presentation (be it plugs, eels, chunk, etc)

A presentation on how to buy and trade plugs. It seems to be the new rage

Good, good...

How about "How To" seminars where different people demonstrate different techniques. Not individual seminars so much as 3 or 4 different "stations" in a seminar where you can talk with a presenter, more one on one at each station? Does that sound workable?

How about Fishing Etiquette??? Both surf and boat. Personally I think it's worse on the boat...all these yahoos racing up to breaking fish at WOT, putting them down. Drives me nuts, as do other "infractions"

I think that would be very good. Lets just say you had a guy at a table rigging sluggos, and a guy at a table doing korker modifications, and a guy tying teasers, and a guy turning plugs, and a guy making eelskin plugs, and a guy making bucktails all in one area. You could wander from table to table getting hands on advice and asking questions.

Fact is, I was at one like that 10 days ago and it was terrific.

As long as there isn't pictures of dead bass, I hate the presentations that they sit in front of you and show one dead fish after another like look at me I can catch big fish. I don't like guys who sit in front of you and brag

That sounds like a great setup but tough to do with so many people. How many people were at the show you were at? I would love to see one on basic reel maintenance.

Given that I am unsure how all that would work - I would like a seminar on reading the water - even with a OTW phantom beach type approach

BigBo,
I'll be doing the following presentation at the SWE show Feb 9th in case you're interested:

"Moon, Tide, and Wind"

It will cover:

Moon Phase, Tides and Currents, and Wind Conditions are major factors that every surfcaster must contend with. They are always present.
Knowing more about them and how they inter-relate will make you a better surfcaster.

Thanks Dennis. As much as I'd like to be there, I probably won't be able to make it on that date. Should be a good presentation though with your knowledge.
