Batson Enterprises - Thank You's

I would like to personally thank the promoters of the show for all there hard work. I know what it is like to host a show and all the work it takes to make everything happen.
In my honest opinion> this was a great show considering it being a first annual event. We (The Batson TEAM) will continue to support this event for many years to come. I believe it will continue to grow and attract builders from all over the country.
I was very pleased with the attendance and the Quality of folks that came to visit our display. It was a pleasure meeting and answering questions in regards to our product lines. I like the Fact that folks were there to ask the questions and pick up and look at the products. That is why we were there, for the builders/Fisherman to feel comfortable about the product lines we create and distribute.
The fellowship of rodbuilders IMHO in that area is GREAT. That is what it is all about>>
"The Fishing Experience".
Thank you everyone for your support of our products. Please feel free to contact us anytime>>

Took a good look at your guide display at the show, impresive quality. Going to give them a shot on my next sticks.

I like the fact that you guys torture test them in the salt to show their corrosion resistance.

Bill,
I'm with Guadalupe, those new color ring guides look great. I also liked the grips you had on your own personal rods. Knowing that you build and fish your own products inspired confidence in your product line. I can't wait for the new stuff to come out.
