There is two shows on this year, both are being held in Dublin.
One is on this weekend near Swords in the National Show centre and the other one is at the end of the month being held in the City West hotel just off the N7 at saggart.
Both shows have different guest speakers at them with Henry Gilbey and Paul Young in attendance at the one at the end of the month.
Either or both would be good if your looking for a day out and if you've got both the time and more importantly the money to go.

How did you get a jacket to fit you, i'd say the tailor got sacked when he made that jacket ha ha ha!
Kstaff has always been the new black in my eyes anyway!!!!!!!

Gorilla Flourocarbom 100m spools for 5eur, grant it the guy was packing up! :D

Thought the show was great as usual you did have to hunt for the bargains but the guys there were willing to do deals after you visited the same stand 10 times for a browse.

Came home with,
4 x 4oz spools of Ultima Distance ( 20 eur) 12.95 each normally
2 x 4oz spools of Powerflex Shock ( 10 eur) 10 eur each normally
2 x 100m spools of Gorilla Flouro ( 10 eur) 8 eur each normally
1 x Suffix Tritanium .35 Free of charge! Cheers Larry! :D
Loads of clear rig beads and sequins and clear bait stops, 1 uer per pk!

Ohh and I was offered an original Daiwa Whiskar Kevlar mint 12ft rod for 100 eur but I said no thanks! :D

I also won the Evo Hockey Ball challenge beating Paddy 5 rounds to 2!! :D

Great weekend!!!

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.
