Louisville's not bad. The boat shows in general are not really strong with fishing tackle anymore due to the cost of the space. The promoters sell out their space so easily now to the boat/rv dealers that its hard for them to justify selling space at a reduced cost so tackle stores can come in. Plus the ever popular big box stores, Bass Pro Shops for example have eliminated so many little tackle stores in the regions where they open up, that there is now less of a pool of mom and pops to go to the boat shows, and NONE of the big box stores take fishing tackle to the boat shows.

I think Louisville is worth going to. It's got about 10-15 booths, including Plapp's Tackle Trailer. Now Indy probably has 100-125 booths
