Anyone going to the Sportsman's Expo this weekend?

If you're not looking for an Alaska or other fishing trip or guided hunt, I'd say skip it and spend admission/parking on dinner/drinks somewhere.

Last year the discount coupons from the Cabelas booth made it worth the effort.

I’m planning on going probably Saturday with the family.
Mostly because I’m still a fly-fishing newbie, so I was hoping to look more into that.

So what you're saying is I should go, submit friends' info, and they'll get inundated with call from these companies?
I only joke about that because it took 4 phone calls from Stevenson Chevrolet to get them to stop calling after some friends gave them my info at the Stock Show 2 years ago.

Hahaha That may be the only good reason to go

Funny you’d say that because that’s exactly why I’m going! My wife suggested that my aging stepfather and I go up there for the salmon run this year and I’m gonna see about taking her up on that offer.

You missed the fly fishing show at the merchandise mart last weekend then I take it.. Looking at the vendor list for the sportsmans show it seems like the bulk of the booths are outfitters and not so much gear related.

Just a heads up.. Rocky Mountain in Boulder has "fish alongs" every month. I fished Cheeseman last Sunday with them. The owner of the shop and a few of the guides/employees take you out to random locations and provide instruction and even gear/flies if you don't have the right stuff. At the end of the day they grill up burgers and brats, was a great time.. and it was Free!

I left a case of beer for the guides which was much appreciated.

I went today, it’s fun, Colorado parks and wildlife have fun things that my girls could do! Lots of guided fishing, hunting, etc like everyone one said. There is a lot of things to see, bought my NRA lifetime membership today since they had deals.

That's funny. So catch and release?
