    I'll be there Arthur.

    I've said this before, this is a great opportunity to get some FREE fishing intel from some of the BIG guys in the industry. If you pass this up, it's your loss.

    Thanks Ryan and John. Nicole delivered an awesome talk that reinforced some of things we have been talking about at the club such as the importance of sound. Captive fish can distinguish different human voices coming from another room and can tell the difference between those who feed them and everyone else. Large tuna in a noisy harbor only get excited when they hear their feed boat coming from over 1/4 mile away. Fish also communicate between themselves more than we think and smelling blood of their own species will put out a warning to all fish in the areas to shut down the bite, ....., great stories like this besides all of the good info on bait. cheers, O

    The part about the blood will change the way I handle my fish from here on out!
