| Fred Hall San Fran Vs. L.A.
Living in Norte California, I have only visited the Hall show in San Fran. a couple of years back, mostly frsh water fishing....
Is it true that the L.A. one is larger, better, and more targeting of Saltwater....
any info will help us in determining whether we need to take a ROAD TRIP!

The FHS down here is comparable to the ISE in San Mateo but a lot bigger and better. I've been to the ISE in San Mateo and the FHS in SF.
You really have to make it down here to Long Beach to check it out.

i went to the sf show this year and was very disappointed. I would say its about 1/3 the size of the LB show.

We drove down and it was well worth it. The LB show is definitely three times the size of the Cow Palace one.
