I am not normally negative. I went to almost every show the last two years, the Timonium show and Baltimore boat show were the worst. The boat show is a shadow of its past and not attended by many boat manufactures. However, if you are looking to get out of the house and spend some time looking at fishing guides, boats and charters then give it a whirl. The Timonium show does have great speakers. Another plus about Timonium is Andy Nelsons Barbeque is just down the street.
