My Favorites:

1. Matt's new bluegill with the flared out fins. Freaking awesome and I bought one and will buy more. Can't wait to see the reaction of a bass when it sees that the bluegill it noses up on has the balls to flare out it's fins like a middle finger.

2. A couple of hand tied white jigs that stand up perfectly for bed fishing. I forget the makers name, but they might be carried at Bob Marriott's if I remember correctly. They also have two tail feathers in purple that stand up to tickle the nose of a curious bass.

3. Jackall bluegill giron hard bait was impressive looking, but I'm sticking with Matt's at this point.

4. The new jackall frog and mouse baits with the rabbit hair feathers were pretty awesome looking and I would definitely add that to your frog/mouse arsenal when you get the chance.

5. Scott Whitmer (Triple Trout) had the new 4 part swimbait out and if you asked nicely he also had some protype lures in a box he would show you and explain. All had the same design as the TT, but there was a 3 inch minnow pattern, bluegill pattern, and then he had a giant 5 piece Triple Trout.

6. Strike King has a new minnow two joint swimbait coming out that looks like it might be cool to try out. KVD fished it at Mission Viejo lake over the weekend and said he did fairly well with it.

Those were the few things that stood out to me. It's amazing how many great anglers show up at such a small event and it's really a top notch show that Angler's puts on. Tons of great giveaways as well.
