Cal is obviously going to be there. Who else?
PM me or write in this thread.
Anyway if you see a guy with Confederate Flag on his shirt on some photo's from ICAST - it's gonna be me :D

I am not going, but am curious when it will occur this year. The information may be on another thread, but I am so busy guiding fishing trips that I don't spend much time on Tackle Tour during the summer. Thank You,

First day
New product showcase and voting for the best product in each category.

Funny, but Daiwa didn't have new Steez for that voting, only Tatula CT was there, and new saltwater spinning reel.
Shimanoinly had new Metanium MGL and a fly-fishing reel
Rods - G Loomis - new GLX rod, St. Croix - new crankbait rod.
Bunch of baits, but most of them been available for long time, like Megabass Funky Flipper.
Best hardbait - obviously Savage Gear duck
Best softbait - hard to say yet, I picked new Jackall popping frog.
ABU had new MGXtreme reel.

Let me know if you have specific question to one of the exhibitors, seems to be a lot of folks directly from Japan, which is good :D
Looks like busy day tomorrow, added at least 25 booths to visit.
New updates tomorrow.
P.S. Haven't seen Cal yet, a lot of u-tubers though, like LunkersTV, Flair, JohnB, LakeForkGuy, etc.

Cool pics and report Cracker.

Sounds like nothing earth shattering at ICAST?

Evergreen or Imakatsu with a booth?

No Imakatsu, Evergreen had a little stand inside Daiwa booth with Brett Hite hanging there for couple days.
