ISE Show / San Mateo - Jan 15.16.17 (pics)

Eric B and I showed up at the ISE. Saw Chucke and Allen / Otobepelagic repping for Hobie Kayaks. Adam / Fishunter was kind enough to display his loaded Prowler 13 right by the Aquan booth. Got to see Chucke and Allen Bushnell do the kayak fishing seminars. Bumped into some members, lurkers and met some potential NCKA members. Had fun chatting it up and making new friends!

Seems like the ISE is getting smaller by the year

some pics...

Thanks for the picture Mooch.  Why Adam look sooooo happy?

I've noticed that too over the previous 3 years.  The economy strikes again.

Hello all,

I'm heading to ISE today, did anyone see any screaming deals?
I have a shopping list I need to fill.

Regards,
Mike

Sorry Mike, I wasn't there to shop but if I had the shopping funds, I would have bought way more than I needed

I know Aquan Sports had 20% off coupons.

I want personally thank Mooch, Fishunter, Allen Leepin, Patrick, Allen Bushnell and everyone that helped me out or attended the show in support of NCKA.  You guys are alright!

I really enjoyed Chuck and Scallen's talks.  Even though most of the material they covered was familiar to me, they still got me re-stoked on just how cool kayaking is.  And it's always great to pick up a few tips from The Masters.

Not much in the way of deals that I saw, although DFG was giving out fish ID booklets, with color illustrations.
