January 14 & 15, Triple S Sporting Supplies held its annual Show at the Holiday Inn on Grand Island. Manufacturers and their Representatives from some of the top Companies across the US and Canada set up displays and demonstrations on all the latest products to hit the fishing and Outdoor market in 2005. Dealers came from everywhere to place orders, see their reps and look for specials.

The weather was calm, the attendance was great and the enthusiasm was fantastic! A show like this takes countless hours of planning, hard work and a dedicated staff. Our thanks to Triple S and their entire crew for inviting us and putting on a wonderful event.

Below are a few pictures that Shelley and I took while we met with our accounts, saw a lot old friends and made some new ones. Look for a complete list of new and exciting products in the Spring Issue of LOO that will be on the shelves in late March.

Challenger Lures Jointed Deep Diving Jointed Stickbait.

No pictures yet, but this will be a hot lure come this summer. Great colors, great action. This will be a killer for walleye as well as trout and salmon.

Gamma Industries (Frog Hair)

A great split shot holder that pins onto your vest or jacket.

They also premiered their new Co-polymer line. Real nice stuff.

Storm Lures are Back! All the original colors and sizes. Thundersticks, Hot n Tots, Wiggle Warts.

Many new spoon colors from Fishlander, Michigan Stinger, Northern King, Dream Weaver and more.
