Monday, the Fishing Master Catalog arrived from BassPro Shops. Nothin' better'n a new wish book to wile away the winter doldrums. Guess what. Some prices are the same as 2022, others up anywhere from 8 to 12%. Who would'a thought?

I know as soon as I open that thing, I’ll be down $200. Sort of like checking the stock market…. Thanks Brandon!

Word on the street is BayRat lures is going out of business. 

Word is also that Northland bought out Bagley Baits.

Anyone going to the Monroeville Show? I believe it's weekend of the 17th.

Is Roscoe P Coltrane going to be there? I went like 15 years ago. He was there. Was pretty much the highlight. That and not being able to catch a trout out of their swimming pool. Stupid fish. Had a bunch on, but they used the dullest hooks possible. So was kind of fun not actually landing them. I’m sure they did it to help keep them alive.

We would go to the Cleveland Show every year, back in tha day with the Game Commision bus trip. Was great being an early teenager and bringing back a huge bag of tobacco samples. Oh how the 80s were so different than today 😆. I can't see why it was a bad idea just passing out Redman plug and Silver Creek to who ever walked by the booth🤣

I’m going to go to the Harrisburg show to meet up with the PH from the Safari company we went with. Haven’t seen him since Covid. We tried to put together a preserve pheasant hunting trip while he was in the US, but our schedules just didn’t work out.

 Don't see the Laurel H.S Sportsman's Night Out posted again this year. It was usually around the end of February. Wasn't too far of a drive and made for nice little evening.
 
    
  For Conneaut Creek in Crawford County
 wonder if just a Trout stamp is good enough and no need for the Erie? Probably since the crick is in Crawford county??

We are in Laurel. I just asked and the girls said they're not doing it this year.
