Rochester Outdoor Show

Heard on Fan Outdoors that there’s an Outdoor show next weekend in Rochester. Does anyone know much about this? I looked online and can’t find much, other than it looks like it’s at the Civic Center and admission is $6. Tackle Terry Tuma spoke on KFAN and said he’ll be there doing seminars, I’ve never attended one of those, just don’t know if I want to drive to town with the young kid for this event or not. Any info about the event from previous attendees would be helpful.

Lots of campers and boats. Rochester has little in the way of fishing related shopping that used to attend this event so I pass on it. There may be some tackle vendors but no one I know and I’m not big on looking at campers and boats.

Thanks Tom. I thought it would maybe be cool to listen to Tackle Terry Tuma, but I’m sure I can get the same stuff online.

Terry has great information and is worth listening to. Nice guy. And if you’re looking for a vacation resort they’re well represented there too. The last of these shows I went to I think there were two tackle vendors there and deals were thin. This show is geared more toward the campers and travel trailers and boats.

It would be great to see Rochester host an open water fishing show similar to the Ice Show in St. Paul.
