They are fantastic to go to because as you listen to what the presenters have to say you can fantasize what your next fishing season will be like. The lectures give you some super information on new fishing spots both for freshwater and saltwater. They explain some ways to fish bait or lures that maybe you have not tried yet. Different presentations can be on fly-fishing, bait-casting, or using a variety of artificial lures and leaders and rods & reels.
All of this gets you anticipating the warmer weather to anxiously get to cast out your line for the first time this season.
I do not know about you, but I can hardly wait to wet my line!
