Fish Report for 3-9-2011

SFR Blog: Here we go, awards going out all day

The 2011 Fred Hall Show in Long Beach is just about to start, the big tuna is up in the Vagabond booth and the Let Us Fish hats are for sale for $10 (it all goes to fight the MLPA legal battle) at booths like AFTCO, where I bumped into my old friend Greg Stotesbury. Greg is headed back to Chicago Saturday to watch his son graduate from Navy bootcamp, and then Zane is on to the nuclear engineering school in South Carolina.

Big excitement so far was the backdrop of the Point Loma Sportfishing booth falling just 10 minutes before the show was supposed to start. They're just two booths down from us on the 700 row. Don't forget to come by the booth with your iPhone and get $5 off a t-shirt, longsleeve t, sweatshirt or beanie. We'll be handing out the Annual SportfishingReport.Com Catch Awards all day and taking photographs of the winners. Here's the list again:
