George McCabe epitomizes everything that’s great about our hobby. Knowledgeable and quick to unselfishly share that knowledge.

I was so glad he came to the show in Weirton this weekend and I hope to see him in Canton, OH in November, at Kevin Virden’s show, if not before.


George and Matt

Hey George!

Great to have you with us! Looking forward to seeing you soon at a Tackle Show or two later this year (the ORCA Convention in Frankfort KY this September perhaps). Take care.
