Good show on Friday with some good discounts on tackle.
Definitely worth the trip over if you’re in the DFW area.

It was slow this morning...there were people, but not many. Several of the Pros had left yesterday due to schedules and up coming weather in their path. Did see several a few good looking baits / rods...but didn't spend a ton of money.

Re: 2022 Fun-n-Sun Boat Show Jan 14/16 - 01/16/22 09:25 PM

Baits worth checking out...in no order

Epic
4B
Smash-Tec
Jawtec

Rods worth checking out...in no order

OdieHammer
JB3

I didn't look at any of the Shimano, Diawa, etc...as they can be seen anywhere.

They had some good deals on things 20% off rods, some bait makers were giving 10% off, and many had bulk deals.

The Googans had a booth...but it was empty...went by a few times as I was talking with a few rod booths around them. No one home. They did have a few deals going as well if you're into their baits.

It was cool talking with a few crappie guys as well. If I decide to put up my bass gear, I could see the fun in their products.

i thought the show wasn't very good this year. i liked the layout but there wasnt that much to look at. several "custom" bait makers but its all generic looking copy cat stuff. u would think being the only fishing show around it could pull in better stuff

As long as Wilcox was there, then the event was a success.

Not sure if this was an attempt at being facetious or not, but yes Bill was there. Met and talked with him a few minute, what a great guy. What you see on the show is how he is in person.

The JB3 rods were impressive. 100% American made blanks, Fuji eyes cork chandler. Built in College Station.
Probably the best deal I’ve looked at in a USA product in years.

Re: 2022 Fun-n-Sun Boat Show Jan 14/16 - 01/17/22 06:40 PM

I enjoyed spending time there on Saturday amongst COVID concerns. I got to see a bunch of my pro buddies I don't get to see very often and met a bunch of folks that I have chatted with here on the TFF or are fans of my YouTube videos. And as those of you that have met me in person know, I am a talker so I had a blast giving a rambling seminar about Side imaging and forward sonar.

For sure...I picked up a few of their rods and were very impressed with the weight / fit and feel.

I picked up a Trick Shot rod to try out for skipping docks. For around $120 I couldn't pass it up.
