The PENN Service Team will again be attending the Fred Hall Show in Long Beach 2017.  If anyone plans on attending please stop by the PENN booth and say hello.  Looking forward to talking to Alan, Fred, Randy, Cal and many others again.

Tony, I think that you might get a kick out of seeing how well your products have held up if you come by our Vintage Offshore Tackle booth.  You might also be amazed to see some of the aftermarket components that have been developed over the years by companies who have gotten there start hotrodding Penn reels and went on to become successful reel manufacturers in their own right.   We are in a new location this year, right across the aisle from your booth in the 1400 aisle.

We are all looking forward to seeing you there.

I havent been in FHS in longbeach ever, is it really much better than Del Mar edition? (taling only about offers and special deals, I know its 30-40% bigger in space and vendors)

I will try to make it to LB edition but its a long drive from San Felipe to LB, I had been on Del Mar FHS for 5 years in a row but I missed the last 3 years (work and ecomony issues), I planning to go again to check it out, if I cant make it to LB I will be on DM for sure.
I will remember to be wearing my Ohana shirt for the case someone see me wearing it feel free to say hello.
