saint308 Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Here are some pics from the fall festival we had last weekend. Alchi Baits had a booth for the first time and we were pleased. There are some things that needs to be changed for next year, but all in all it was good for a first time. The first pic was just some baits laying on the table. The next was soem of our toads hanging. The last is some of our sticks hanging. Saint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint308 Posted October 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 More pics. The first pic is of our banner. The next is a kid playing with a toad in our aquarium. I actully sold his mom a pack of toads as bathtub toys. The last is our aquarium. We showed how the sticks sink when rigged various ways. Saint.

saint308 Posted October 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Last pic. This has nothing to do with the baits, but it was a very cool dog. Saint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint308 Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Good job.... I have thought about doing some shows like that. How did it work out for you? It worked out quite well. We paid for our spot and then some. We also gave out a lot of cards and talked fishing with a lot of people. We are going to do the spring festival as well. I think we will do better at that time. A lot of the people were saying how they winding down fishing this year and preparing for hunting season. So I imagine the spring will be better. We were next to a buddy of mine that makes spinnerbaits, buzzbaits and cranks. His name is CJ Bass. He makes some real good stuff. There was also a guy that makes custom rods there. We are all going to be together in the spring and kind of feed off each other. It will be very cool. I am also trying to get a some other fishing related people to join us. Anyway, let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. Saint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rixon529 Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 OK, Saint. I'll bite... Out of curiosity - where'd you get the name "Alchi" baits? Is that an acronym of some kind? Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint308 Posted October 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Nope, when I started pouring I had one mold and poured on top of my bar bq pit. I would sit out there all night pouring and drinking beer. Finally, my wife would come out and say, "time to come in alchi". It is short for alcoholic, which I am not, but I thought it was funny and it stuck. Saint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
