Just wanted to give a quick heads up that the Ward Melville High School Fishing Club is hosting its Annual Expo and fundraiser on Saturday March 2. Doors to the public open at 830 am and the show concludes at 3 pm. As with years in the past, admission and parking is free. There will be 15 seminars on various topics, and over 270 tables of vendors. Charter and party boats, custom rods, manufactured rods and reels, plug builders, custom bucktail and jig companies, fleamarket, art, apparel, DEC, and various other vendors from Ma, Ct, NY, NJ and PA will be present. There over 70 raffles that go to raise funds for the high school fishing program. New hallways and areas of vendors were added this year. Food trucks will be there and a youth tackle scavenger hunt for anglers aged 7 to 18 will take place. A FREE shuttle service (yup, school bus) will be available to take you from a satellite parking lot to Ward Melville during the hours of 10 till 2 pm. The satellite lot is less than a mile south of Ward Melville so you wont be able it miss it. You can search our website for details on vendors, raffles and all particulars about the show. Hope to see you there!

SO I am working with the kids of the Ward Melville High School Fishing Club on ideas for next years show. They've come up with some good ideas and one in particular got me thinking. Why don't we reach out and ask the people that attend our shows, what they would like to see/experience at a show? Its a great and relevant question. So, what do you want to see at a show? The question is a general one, any aspect of a show is fine to comment on. I want to add a specific question on the coattails of the first. When it comes to seminars, who do you want to hear speak? Topics of interest? Any ideas other than the traditional person on stage speaking to the crowd? Totally open to new ideas and formats and any ideas are truly appreciated. Feel free to post here or to email us at wmhs****@gmail.com Thanks Bob
