Jeff, many thanks. <br><br>Got enough info for now thanks given your great response from the other board. Just need to see what the rest of the Aussie crew are planning to do in terms of the show and then we can make some serious plans to do some of that So.Cal fishing, plus go to the boat party, that has been mentioned. <br><br>Both sound like a lot of fun, plus being able to meet up with people and put some faces to names will be a real bonus IMO. <br><br>The internet is a great and powerful thing, but not quite the same for me as sitting or standing around with people and having a "yarn" as we say down here. <br><br>Look forward to doing that trip/show if things go according to plan. Will keep people informed on that as time goes by. <br><br>I would also like to hear from other anglers who have been and what they liked about it. <br><br>They tell me the FH Show is bigger than the movie "Gladiator" and has a cast of thousands. True?<br><br>When you come from a country that only has 18 million fishing, sporting, boating, sun loving, swimming, surfing, golfing, sailing, beer drinking, chardonnay slurping, hard playing "fanatics" then going to a fishing show of this size sits a bit off the dial for me. <br><br>Even so, I am sure we'll rise to the occasion in true Oz style if we make the journey!<br><br><br>Burnin Thumbs!<br><br>Steve - The MJB<br>BFT Lures/Baits<br><A HREF="http://www.demonjigs.com" target="_new">http://www.demonjigs.com</A>
