I agree with some of the others...get rid of the Lumberjacks and get more Tackle Dealers and Boat Dealers.Heck, don't the people in charge check out the other shows and see what they're doing ? Go to the Louisville Boat/RV Show and see how successful it is.

As far as the Baja's and houseboats... well they ARE boats too,and people must be buying them. Heck, the price of the largest Tournament Bass boats aren't far from the same price of them.

I haven't been to the Lexington Boat Show in several years for lack of boat/tackle dealers. (heard it was to expensive to rent a spot) Seems like the last time I was there there were only 2 rooms of vendors to see.

They might look at refiguring their rental rates,as it might pay to have more vendors at a lesser rate.
