IFTD and ICAST 2017
As always, I had a fantastic time at IFTD and ICAST this year! Seeing the newest and most innovative flyfishing products is always a blast, but the best part is reconnecting with old friends and meeting new ones! A round of applause for the hardworking folks that host the show!! And, of course, a huge Thank You to all the exhibitors who take the time to talk with us. To all the folks at home who followed along with my posts, thanks to you as well. You guys are the reason I do it!! Can't wait until next year!!!!
