90% Positive I'll be buying a new Curado at the show, and possibly a new flippin' stick. There's always the hopes to find some amazingly good deals on tackle or something unique I've been needing. Maybe next year will be the big one to get myself a depthfinder other than my crappy little (3.5") B/W Lowrance that doesn't always work. :-p Will be fun to see all you guys manning those booths too.

I am planning to get a new GL2 casting rod with a Smoke.

Last year I was able to get a Mojo Bass flippin stick with a Curado for ~30% off. The retailer included free line for the combo. St. Croix gave me a shirt for buying on of their rods and Shimano gave me a shirt for buying their reel. All in all, pretty sweet deal.

What kind of discounts / deals have the rest of you been able to find?

You bring your Shimano reels in and they show you how to take them apart and properly clean them. They will fix any minor issues as well. Don't expect to drop them off and pick them up. And set aside some time, in order for them to show you properly, it takes a decent amount of time.

Hit up the show last night. I was surprised, it was actually pretty quiet. Was hoping to get a couple of rods. Ended up getting a Mojo rod from Thorne Bro's. They wouldn't negotiate a lower price but did have a special that you get 20% of the purchase price to put towards lures,line, hook, etc...so $100 mojo got $20 worth of free stuff which ended up being 2 packs of hooks and a pack of tungsten weights haha.

Also Deitz it was nice meeting you last night!

I dont think you will quite see the same deals you did in the last 2 years. The economy has rebounded some, and retailers are not sitting on the stock that they had in years past in which they NEEDED to get rid of... Yes they still are giving deal you will find nowhere else, but maybe not the crazy silly deals where they lost money on stuff in years past.

That said, I saw some of last year Shimano rods going for as much as 50% off..
