WS was excellent. A good crowd and I sold a lot of lures.  Talked about ya matt- all good of course. Edge came down to get good deals on hand tools and traps, iowa ray showed up. redfx tryed to keep up to the young pups- hah! A good time was had by all. Ws really puts on a nice convention- good showers, buildings, concessions-, magic shows, live bands, auction, camping.    

Tom made me and edge haul his semi size trailor all over the fairgrounds- kind of like a woman moving furniture if you ask me...

next year get yo' butt up here ....

well i`m afraid to come up there now,  tom might put me to work.  i`d like to go to several next year, maybie tail gate some junk.  and after looking around today thats about all i got.  but i plan on turning it back into (cool stuff) starting oct. first.

i trust you kept a tight leash on ray and edge and the fox??  rough bunch there.  well i guess tom hid my video from everyone again, i think i`ll save up about a weeks worth of coyotes this season and have linda take a picture.  i`ll smile big like i caught them in one day.  then have it blown up to a life size poster for tom lol

heck, myself and rich kaspar are both experts on how long we can let a coyote lay around anyway before skinning.  it takes years of looking at them with your head cocked sideways and squinting to get the feel for it.

glad everyone had fun.....matt

Steve,helping move my trailer ,had to be the only work you did this weekend.Anyone who can load or unload in 5 minutes can't be working,but I do appreciate yours and Edges help.
 By the way Guys--if it were'nt for steve's wife, nothing would get done or sold.  You missed the fun steve,cleaning crew wanted to sweep before I was done loading.They were not happy with me,dirty lure bottles and gloves ,etc--don't sell well.So needless to say ,I won't let anyone raise dust clouds till I am out of the building.  Tom

Yep thats right.  The reason is that his better half was along and kept Tom  ahumping packing and of course driving straight thru without all those coffee stops Bog does  to have a picker upper LOL.  Steve  did help  Bog i was told but guess who was selling Stefs Lures????? Not Steve , good ol Lori comes thru again.  Hey Edge how was that new route you took back up to Mich???? Must have been good and FAST as you checked and set traps!!!    Hey Wacky  my stetson hasnt arrived yet????? :evil:

OHIO was a good show! Wish I would have stayed the entire show. Only went on Saturday.

The Ohio Trappers Association are a great group of people.

Heard Bob Jameson, Mark Stackhouse, Doug Lee, and Greg Wasilewski, speak and give demos on - Canine Trapping - Mink Trapping - Jr. Water Trapping and - Nuisance Trapping... Great Stuff!

A lot of kids there, and my son really enjoyed it. Thanks OTA! Good Turtle Soup by the way...
