As always, you do not want to miss the Trade Show and Poster Social. Arrive early so that you have enough time to talk with the authors as you explore the 175 posters that represent outstanding scientific research on a plethora of topics. We have again lined up a most impressive list of national/professional exhibitors to help further your scientific objectives, and we are also quite proud to have a variety of local/regional artisans – bring your money since you’ll want some of their beautiful fish-related works of art! As with previous years, beverages and light food will be provided both to help you maintain your energy level as well as help you further your networking connections. The annual live auction will begin during the Trade Show and Poster Social and end Wednesday night during the Grand Social.
