What a great event!
I'd give this a 8 out of 10 for being awesome.
By comparison I'd give the Kent Island show a 4.
There were a lot of cool vendors at Tri State, it was FREE, and the people selling stuff weren't all dealers. I got a GREAT deal on a huge box of my favorite lures. Easily $60 worth of stuff for $20. I LOVE events where people are actually willing to make deals....the whole purpose of a "flea market" is to unload your unwanted stuff, make a few bucks and maybe pick up a few wanted things for a kick ass price.
I wish I could have spent more money, as there were a lot of deals I had to pass on and it was killing me.
I want to thank the people at Tri State for putting this on. It's a great event and I hope it's worth their time and effort.
And I want to thank the fella that made me such a freat deal on the Miller Lite box full of lures. Glad I could help you out....I know you didn't want to take it home.
Saw Fish Nut there but I didn't get to say hi. I missed everyone else.
Going there was a last minute decision for me. My son had a basketball game down that way so I decided to leave a few minutes early and stop by. SO glad I did.
