Fred Hall Long Beach was a family affairThe 2011 Fred Hall Fishing Tackle and Boat Show is over and the one thing that struck this SFR writer was how many families took advantage of the fact the Halls have always let kids in for free. Especially on Sunday, but obvious every day of the show, was the fact that dads and moms and their kids came in force to check out the best in fishing and boats. Thanks to everyone who attended and if you missed this one, in two weeks the show will be in Del Mar.
