It is definitely worth the effort to see his presentation and ask him questions. Once he starts to open up the secret LTJ vault, I was actually surprised at the level of detail he is willing to reveal.
A couple other observations:
The American Legion bar area is really very nice.
Eat some food before going to an event like this.
If you buy a "bucket" of beer you get one (beer) free.
People love to play with Spike-It dye.
If you kiss SK's ring, you get a Candy Corn Jig Head.
His fish pictures are bigger than anyone else's (including Jamie's).
There are Kimbro Groupies (unfortunately, they are mostly scraggly dudes).
Ha ha... the female groupies were waiting in the bar.... I was outnumbered and needed help, but I guess my listserve brethren have short apron strings.....

Thanks to those who came - I was hoping no one would tell Jamie I "minimized" his pictures!

Yup, I cringed every time that spike-it jar came out. The Legionaires are good people, but I still didn't want to buy them a new carpet.

Thanks to Rick for buying the beer last night, and Mark for bringing out some gear to show, and especially to the Kent Island Fishermen. Good folks.
