TJQ Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 We saw SOOOOO many people... Lots of old faces.. well "well known" faces.. lol, and got to meet a TON of new people. Had a blast at the G2G. Here's some pictures we took, this ones the best.. that was one happy girl.. and now she knows girls ARE better anglers. Pete and Corvette1 Esther Maina Steve and the Maina's www.petemaina.com HTHM, Phill Harrison, and Maureen at their booth. www.offthedock.net Uncle Buck and his girl Our Newest Client, Steve from Chaudiere Lodge Greg and Gavin from DT Powersports (thanks for the tickets!!) This is one booth that really got my attention, just because it was set up well, and looked really pretty, I don't fly fish, but wow.. if i did... looks like they have a nice website as well.. reelflies.ca I thought this product was a great concept for cutting line, I was gonna come back and get a couple but of course forgot.. I think the guy said it was patented and made here as well. http://www.zipcutpro.com/ My wife holding JP up..... its a good thing we live far far away..... Big Buck and Squid Roy and da boys! Paul Powis otherwise known as "House" LOL ( http://www.jpfish.com ) and "Bull Dog".. Paul kept me busy (distracting me I think..) whilst my wife was entertained with stories of Wales... Bull Dog wanted to drive the Ridgline so badly I "let" him drive it back to the motel after dinner... lol. your welcome... hahaha.. Paul by the way did the Filleting Fish Freshwater Edition DVD by Rapala Pete and Esther My wifey and two hacks... At least I always wind up with the girl... lol Anyway, it was a GREAT day... got to meet Big Jim finally and countless others, got some Gloomis shirts and had JP show me about this new indestructible line of Shimano rods, which are quit reasonable in price.. right up my alley! Dinner and drinks were great, as always everyone there board members, including Dave and JP were generous beyond the call of duty. Now I gotta get to work!! Thanks to all for the $9 tallboys!! If I missed anyone, accept my apology.. lol.. its too much in one day for a hick like me to remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Nice pics. I never get to go to those functions because my "work" is weekends only. I have my old age pension coming before the year is out but I don't think I'll retire yet. Too much fun. Hey TJ, I thought you were going to get into fly fishing. Thought that's why I sent you those instruction videos some years back. Did you watch them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuck Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 TJ, great pics!!! It was good to meet a few members in person but I had to get going, my little ones had enough sitting around so it was time to head home. The show was great and very informative. Now, to find some bullet head jigs to try out swim baits for some 'eyes. It was great to talk to Pete and Esther, Gord Pyzer, Dave Mercer, Doug Brownridge and countless others. Now I can't wait for softwater season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
