The people who took part in this event for 2014 were not disappointed. This annual event is held around December 1st of each year. Like last year,
Vexilar sent me up to
Hank's Bait and Tackle to help with in-store sales and to provide a seminar about Vexilar products. Each year this event, and it is truly an event, with food, drinks, all-day long seminar speakers, fully assembled ice shacks and more ice fishing tackle than one can imagine overachieves the year before. I am not sure if it can get much bigger in 2015, but Mike at Hank's Bait and Tackle will most likely make it bigger and better if that is even possible. The seminar speakers that attended this year included; Tommy Skarlis, Scott Reed, Tom Gruenwald, Adam Audette, Dan Johnston, Brian "Bro" Brosdahl, and myself. I am honored to be a part of this group, and each seminar left its audience with a vast amount of new ice fishing knowledge.
If you have never been to Hank's Bait and Tackle in Waterloo, Iowa, make it a point to do very soon. You will simply be amazed at the selection and the knowledgeable sales people they have. Also, if they don't have it, they will get for you. It's pretty amazing to have a shop like this in Iowa.

I was able to sneak in and listen to brief moments of different seminars. Each speaker was able to use their time to inform ice anglers of current trends in the latest ice fishing equipment, bait rigs and a glimpse into how angler should think while pursuing fish on the ice. Each time a seminar concluded the mob of people would come out of the seminar room and be buzzing with the new information they hear about. People were soaking in the knowledge being shared and that is what this great annual event has come to be. A big applause goes out the guys at Hank's Bait and Tackle, especially the mastermind behind it all, Mike Everett. If you missed out this year, stop in to see the huge selection for ice fishing, and make it point to attend in 2015.
