Sportsman show report?

Posted in another thread:

To be honest, I walked away from both the Sportsman show and the Spring Fishing show without buying anything. Mainly because I didn’t see anything that I otherwise couldn’t just buy at a retail outlet. Sure, there are “discounts” but usually for low end gear and stuff that I already have or don’t need 

I was hoping for more manufacturing representation. There is lots of hardware I simply can’t get in this country and I have to travel stateside for it.
