Light-tackle, surf fishing show

The Saltwater Edge has scheduled its annual show for next Saturday with an all-star line-up of fishing experts. They're not professional seminar presenters. They're hard-core fishermen, like "Iron" Mike Everin.

"This year's show figures to be the best one yet with a continuously growing list of invited characters and personalities from within the industry," writes Peter Graeber, manager of The Saltwater Edge."Expect all your favorite regulars as well as many new names and seminars."

Admission is free, but everyone is asked to buy raffle tickets. "Our Conservation Raffle, thanks to the generosity of both those who attend and those who donate prizes, has raised over $17,000 since its inception for a variety of fisheries and coastal access advocacy groups," Peter says. "This year’s raffle will be a little different as the proceeds will go directly to help support the family of our good friend John Haberek who passed away on September 23, 2007." John made Hab's Custom Plugs.

"Raffle prizes should be even more impressive this year," Peter writes. "Many plug builders, fly tyers, and manufacturers are crafting some beautiful one-off items in light of the worthy cause."

The show will open in the Viking Hotel from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For all the details, go to:
