Ottawa Sportsmens Show and Big Jim!

[JackSummers]

I just returned from the Ottawa Sportsmens Show and the Big Jim Event (last evening). What a nice little show it was, but the crowds were not there.

HELLO PEOPLE...GET OUT THERE AND SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL VENDORS!!!

Aside from the show, I had the honour of spending a few hours with some of Canada's greatest folks in the fishing industry including Big Jim McLaughlin. I don't need to tell anyone what a wonderful man he is....I am humbled to know such a good man!

Other noteworthy people there included Bob Izumi, Dave Mercer, Paul Shibata, Charles Sim, Kert Lavigne and many many more. I was particulary delighted to meet Ed and his wife from Paddletails and Gord from Hunters Bay Marina.

What a great bunch of folks in the Ottawa Valley!

Thanks for making my trip to Ottawa memorable and for what you all add to the Canadian Fishing community!

Sincerely

Jack Summers

Big Jim is just that and more..and I hear he can put a big hurt on Izumi on the ice if he can catch him ?LOL

Hahahaa.... Take it to the grave Sandie. Do not kiss and tell. Just glad you didn't rap me on the knuckles for mispelling Paddletales!
