Sports Shows

I would like to start a listing of the scheduled dates for the winter sports shows and seminar schedules. This helps us all to make plans to attend in advance. Anybody that has got solid dates and locations that they can share, can you please post this?

Thanks, Hawger

I have found that the milwaukee sports show is one for the best that I have ever gone to. Plan on going for more than one day, can’t see it all in a day.

The St. Paul Ice show is around Dec. 6, 7, 8th. Correct me if I’m off a day there please. That is a show I hit every year and I recommend that anyone who like to ice fish go take a stroll around. There’s lots and lots of tackle, rods, reels, shacks, heaters, electronics, and seminars by some great speakers and anglers. This year I believe there is to be a seminar speaker on electronics for ice–that should be interesting with the advances in sonar and GPS that have exploded in recent years.

Give it a try and get a jump on the ice season–inevitably the water will freeze again.

For 5 or 6 bucks you will see the newest stuff on the market and be able to interrogate the marketing reps as well.
