As for the show .
I have attended it since it was moved to lamar dixon and to me it has been pretty close to the same every year.
This year there were a few less of the big multi item dealers but more smaller set ups . last year there was a group from tejas that had some serious wading stuff .They weren't here this year.
marsh works has a prime spot just to the left when you enter the main door in A building.
i don't hunt anymore so was not really interested in those booths.
Duddley ,hybrid flurrys ,okuma, american rodsmiths who are allways there were there.
There is a couple that raffle off a REAL nice trailer bbq pit / smoker every year who is on the left b4 you go into A building $5 a chance .
All proceeds go to st. jude. If you can stop by and support the cause.
Seemed to be a few more booths that were promoting their own brands of bbq sauces and seasoning this year . I don't use salt and no one seems to make salt free seasonings . (to exspensive, as salt is usually 40 - 50 % of the container and cheap) so i don't stop at most of them.
Even showed up at the La, sportsman booth sporting my SC rag and there is no one there exsept salesman that is a contract subscription seller for the mag.
All in all for $2 parking and $8 entry ,It was worth my time and money even if just to meet a few new folks and some old friends and kill a windy day.

I did notice more smaller companies representing which was good. but I guess I was really disappointed because out of the 4-5 booths I planned on purchasing from and the main reason I went, none of them were there.
