I'll ask.
I thought about coming up but wouldn't get out until late on Friday and would have to be home at a decent time on Sunday limiting my fishing time. That could change but not likely.
Mark your good spots though. I might be up the next weekend.

[QUOTE=gunrod;3107603]I may be there. I need another pack of feathers or dead animal hide like I need another hole in my head but will probably whip out the wallet at some point.
I will be there with my boats as usual. Gonrod, if you make it be sure to stop by my booth area and say hi. It has been a while...
I know Wellston will be there, I see him every year.
It will be nice to see you old friends again.
Since I have not frequented this site as often as in the past, I'm sure there are many new members I have not met.
Please stop by and say hi..

I will do that Dave. Kind of up in the air right now though. I have to pickup my pup from the kennel/trainer on Sunday so it depends on how long I have to work on Saturday.

Had a good time at the show yesterday. It was great talking to several of you. Dave and his son from DryFly. Steve and Alex from BBT. Chris from Hyde boats.
Hit a few of the seminars. A couple by Bob Jacklin on fishing Yellowstone. One on Labrador brook trout by Bear Andrews. Another on brook trout by Joe Humphreys and a nice presentation on Alaska by John Hohl.
Didn't do too much damage to the wallet either. Dropped a bit on hackle at the Keough booth and a few supplies at BBT.
My buddy dropped some serious bucks though including a print by Derek DeYoung. Derek lived in Grand Rapids before moving to Livingston Montana. I've picked up a few prints of his in the past including one titled Downtown Brown. A brown trout swimming in the Grand with the GR skyline in the background.
A big thanks to RGROSE and Shoeman. I hit the Lazybones Smokehouse after the show. Had the Texas beef brisket. Unbelievable, best barbecue every. Matter of fact I might have to make a trip back.
Some guy was doing the Man vs. Food challenge while I was there. Fifteen minutes to eat two huge Cajun sausage sandwiches smothered with chili, onions, jalapenos, cheddar cheese and pulled pork. Did some serious damage to all but 1/2 of the sandwiched but could not even touch the "platter" of ranch fries. He did a lot better than I would of.
