  1. For you fly fishing companies currently on the fence about ICAST 2010: There IS no sufficient excuse to staying away from Vegas.
  2. What's this? AFFTA and Nielsen have split. Might that open the door for ICAST and the fly show combining?
  3. Awaiting the day when I DON'T get a call alerting me to a company that's about to go out of business.
  4. Not sure why I never paid attention to it before, but the Secret Lures Chuuby Frog looks pretty darn good.
  5. What is Ouzo? A new lure company with some exciting new products. See the company's ad in the December issue of FTR.
  6. Next year, when time for putting together the FTR Buyer's Guide rolls around, I think I'll be out sick. With the fishing flu.
  7. Let me see... It's October in Florida. I'm thinking it's time to break out the frog rod.
  8. Interagency Ocean Policy Task Force. Recognize that title? You will soon become very familiar with the federal agency's policies.
  9. The 2010 Bassmaster Classic will feature a number of very big surprises from well-known manufacturers. You (yes you) should be there.
  10. Heard on the street: "These small companies... They are gonna get bigger or get bought."
  11. A Swimming Super Fluke? As if the Super Fluke was not already deadly enough, Zoom is going a step further, giving it a swimming tail. Wow!
  12. If the economy IS improving, someone obviously has not gotten the news. The job losses keep piling up.
  13. A horrible time to be a pro staffer. Some of tbe biggest names in the industry have seen payments ebb or go away entirely. Ouch!
  14. The pleas for ASA to take over the FFR Show are apparently falling on deaf ears. But there is more to the story than meets the eye.
  15. Heard at the Summit: "Dealers must be energized to get involved and take part in our industry." Could not agree more.
  16. Very successful Summit. The great people of our industry once again get things done in a timely fashion. I am proud.
  17. "Reward your top performers," Jeff Pontius, Zebco Brands. The economy is loosening its grip, and top employees will soon have options.
  18. Said NMMA's Thom Dammrich @ the ASA Summit: "There are some dim lights beginning to shine (on the boat-selling industry)."
  19. heard a lot of suggestions for saving fly fishing retailer show.
  20. first day of ASA Summit meetings went well. what a proactive group.
