2007 NFLCC National Show
Louisville, Kentucky
July 12-14, 2007


This is the fifth time the National show has been held in Louisville, Kentucky.  There were over 600 tables at the show and nearly 550 rooms at the Executive West Hotel, many filled with fishing lures and tackle.

In room trading started as early as Sunday this year and picked up pace during the week.  There were approximately 200 rooms open at various times during in-room trading!      

Show set-up started at 7:30 a.m. on Thursday.  The show room floor was full of nice tackle and collectibles and there were a lot of high quality displays this year.  The annual meeting was held Friday morning from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.  Bill McVeigh was re-elected as the President of the NFLCC for another two-year term.   Club members also approved a committee to begin drafting major revisions to the Bylaws and Standing Rules.   Club members will be apprised of the effort in upcoming Gazettes and revised Bylaws will be presented to the membership in 2008 for action. 

A very special thank you to show hosts Matt and Robin Wickham and the many volunteers that make this annual event so enjoyable.  Below are some pictures from the show.  Enjoy!
