Just wondering. Anyone attend the Raritan Show this year?
If so how was it? Have not been there in a few years .

Me and the wife went yesterday (sunday). Last year I posted how bad i thought it was. BUT this year, they really stepped it up, way much more fishing stuff, we loved the show, and came home with a BUNCH of new stuff. The way I see it, if they keep it up, this show will only get better and better every year.

I also went on Sunday and thought it was great! Lots of fishing gear and tackle for sale, good prices to boot. Walked out with a new combo for $20. Nothing special but i needed something to replace the one I broke in my car door :(

I liked the demos they were doing too. Flycasting lessons, bass lure tactics, even how to properly throw a cast net! One thing I didn't love seeing was that the kids trout pond was full of dead trout :confused: I don't know why they still do those things!

Haven't to that one in years because it lacked good fishing stuff. Might have to re-think that next winter.

So good to hear that someone running that show came to the reality that it was becoming a disaster. Glad to hear about the improvement.
Now if someone could only resurrect the Parsippany show.
