Outdoor Adventure Travel show - going?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Outdoor Adventure Travel show - going?

Post by ipjrobson »

From what I have read there are some fishing related booths there. I think actually Yannick from Ottawa River Fishing is going to be there.

Anyone else going?

It was pretty meh. I was thinking there would be more fishing stuff there. I didn't stay very long at all. Perhaps an hour.

I don't have a fish hawk hat otherwise I would have worn it.

It looked like you were with your kids or something so I decided not to weird you out by saying " hey I am on fish hawk too "

I was there at around 11 am. ,,,,to se becky masson. Canoeing in ghe pool she sure can paddle,

But mabe i mist it but did not saw anything fishing!!!?

A lot of paddle boards,,,few tents,,,etc,,,not a big show.

Soon they will be the running and biking show,,,will be there once again.


But fishing ,,,,,carp show should be the best.

I thought there was supposed to be some fishing stuff there but I didn't see any in the end.

I thought there wasn't going to be a carp show

There is no show in Carp this year. It's in Richmond and will have the same vendors on the ice slab that they had last year I'm told.

No more messy parking lot.

My understanding is, that next year the hunting, fishing and riding component of this show will be much better. Since the Carp show has gone, this show will be the next contender. Just say'n, that's the buzz.
