I'll also need to know what we're pushing this year so I can prep signage and anything we want to be able to distribute.

I suppose we'll be pushing the same topics as always – why it's important to release muskies, why muskies are beneficial in a fishery, and also reminding people of the new regs. I would LOVE to see a big pie chart showing a muskies diet, especially with some proof of these studies in some footnotes at the bottom. Last year, there was a booth that had a few aquariums of lampreys. There were always people milling around that booth. What are the chances that we could somehow get a live Muskie? No, No… Not a legal size. But at one point, Wolf Lake had one around 2' long in an aquarium. When it outgrew the tank, they threw it in the pond. I could contact Shana or Matt to see if they have one?
And, of course, pushing the sales of Michigan Muskie Guide Service. [smilie=biggrin.gif]

I can take revinchev's spot on Friday, and then you can just add him to saturday, which will give Rob and I a chance to get out for a few minutes on Saturday when I am sure it will be pretty busy.

Also, when is set up time and do you need any help???

I also think we should have a sign or handout about the new muskie tag and regulations since a lot of people didn't know about, or understand, it.

Here are some articles of interest & links to the fishing regs & Muskie harvest tag info. We could all discuss what would be important to have at the show.

Duke, can you try to remember to bring your replica to the banquet so we can use it in the booth again this year? The kids LOVED being able to hold it last year. Lotta photos taken with that thing! [smilie=biggrin.gif]

Gotcha – yup I'll bring the replica to the banquet!

Usually Wednesday morning, I can't get into the exhibitor site yet but when I can I'll let you know.

OK, so same stuff as last year. That's easy.

Do you have a Muskie Diet pie chart around anywhere, or could you make one up?

Also, a list of the recent stocking waters or the stocking reports from the last five years would be nice.

So we have decent coverage throughout the show, but I'd still like to get another person or two during the day on Saturday and Sunday. Any other volunteers?? Remember, you get free entry to the show so might as well work the booth for a couple hours and then go spend some money at all the other booths 😀

Bumping this up to see if anyone else might be able to chip in ???

Jason and JP have made some huge commitments here, and anything you could do would help. One thing's for sure, if you can do it you will not regret it! Besides helping out, it really is a great time and one of my very favorite things to do if not actually fishing.

I can help anytime Friday as well since I see Jason is supposed to be there all day! That's a long time to stand on that hard cement floor.

Everyone on the list will have a badge waiting at the show office. Just give them your name/ID.

I'm pretty excited for this. My favorite thing besides fishing for muskies is talking to other people about them. I was wondering, when I get in is there anything that needs to be done or is it just get my badge, find the booth and hang out?
