fred hall show 2014 - thursday

whirlwind trip!  flew down to los angeles international airport after a 2 hour delay, missed my ride with glenn fukumoto from LAX to the fred hall show, warren hamachi fortunately rescued me, we had 5 hours to go through the show, missed john bretza at the okuma booth but saw all the other guys, saw frank murata at the daiwa booth, saw steve carson at the penn booth, grabbed sushi with warren and unexpectedly had john, the marketing director from zebco/finnor, join us (that was fun!), then flew back!  the wife was no where near as ticked off at me as i thought she would be, particularly considering how expensive the last minute plane tickets were!  just photos for now, commentary later. 

hello, LA!!!!!





























































































































i had to steal some photos of the okuma booth from al "DaBigOno" diaz because my camera took that exact moment to take a dump.
