News:

Welcome to the largest gathering of ARIMA boat owners anywhere. We are a forum based gathering of Arima Boat enthusiasts that like to pleasure cruise, fish, camp, and hunt. While Arimas are centered in the PNW, we have members across the globe. It is 3/4's water after all. Lurk, join up, and post about your Arima upgrades, family trips, and of course, your fishing exploits. Just remember to add photos whenever possible.

Now that the Washington show's are forth coming and plans are laid, a plug for PDX's show.

Pacific Northwest Sportsmen's Show, February 6-10, 2013.  Wed.-Fri. 1100-2100, Sat. 1000-2000, Sun. 1000-1800.

Billed as The Largest Sportsmen's Show west of the Mississippi.

This one is normally a "must attend" for fishermen and hunters and we normally pass the boat show for it.

Start your plans.

If your schedule allows, please plan to join us at the on-site (in building) restaurant around 6 on Thursday (7th) to share finds and the usual 'true' stories from the past year or so.

Bumping this up... should be a good show this year, and likely to have lots of Tuna! gear on display.

Kimbrey that is rough duty but someone has to do it!!  :biggrin: I have not gone myself in a few year cause I have been spending the first 2 week of Feb. on Maui. Not going until April this year so off to the show I go. It may be cheaper to go to the islands if the right deal on what I am looking for presents itself. :jester:

With the company supplied travel back and forth to AK for me our Hawaii tickets are all mileage tickets which makes it a fairly good deal for us.  The PDX show would be fun to go to though.  Might even think about buying something as I could get away with no sales tax there.

I would really like to go and meet ya'all, but I can't make Thursdays work right now. Spousal unit has a class Thursday evening, so after my 10hr day I'll be cleaning horse stalls while you all are tippin a few back.  :1zhelp:

Back in the country now and thinking about heading south, especially if 3wt got it right and Russ is taking care of the first few pitchers :biggrin:. I usually can not handle more than one pitcher anyway, especially driving back that night. ReBait - are you planning to go?

Yes.  We may stay the night but if it's a one day trip maybe we can Kalaaaka.   :wink:

Yep, got that.  I'm just wondering how much time I should reserve to see the show beforehand.  I'm leaving work early, trying to gauge just how early.    :biggrin:

Jeff I am leaving work at 1 to be there by 2. 4 hrs is all I can walk at one stretch and I will probably only see about half the stuff I want to.
