2013 LOTSA Expo and Flea Market Announcement.

[Tim Bromund]

On Sunday February 24, 2013 from 08:30am-3:00pm the Lake Ontario Trout and Salmon Association will be hosting our 7th annual Fishing Expo and Flea Market.

The Expo will be at the Cornell Cooperative Extension, 4H Building in Lockport, NY. 4485 Lake Ave (Rte 78), Lockport, NY 14094, approx 2 miles north of Lockport.

The Expo will feature an exhibit hall full of Charter Captains, Fishing Equipment and Tackle Manufacturers, Tackle Shops, etc., selling both new and used tackle at Show Special Prices. Tables are filling up quickly this year and we already have several New Exhibitors.

In addition to the great deals going on in the main hall, over in the seminar room, we will again be conducting a Lake Ontario Trout/Salmon Fishing Basics/Beginners Clinic in the Morning, which will be tailored to those beginners looking to get started fishing LO. In the afternoon, we will once again be sponsoring a Kids Fishing Clinic, designed towards getting kids and their parents started fishing. Both classes are free of charge as part of your Expo Admission, however for the Kids Class, Pre-Registration is required.

Admission will be a $5.00 donation at the door. As in years past, all admission money collected will be donated to help fund Pen Rearing.

Please visit the LOTSA Website http://www.lotsa.org for more information.

Tim, ITO Flies is looking forward to coming back to this show!! It was Awsome last year and should be great again this year!

[Tim Bromund]

Ryan, Should be a great one. We fully booked the room in 2 1/2 weeks and have several additional interested vendors on a waiting list. Lots of interest this year.

[ITO Flies]

May need to find a bigger room!!!!!

[orangediablo]

went last year and learned a lot. Was surprised how crowded it was. Is there any chance of a larger room or being extended to another building to accommodate any additional vendors??

[Tim Bromund]

Well, guys we did end up adding a second room of vendors (the smaller room across the hall from the Seminar Room) 

 

Here is the Vendor List and Table Layout for the Expo.

Also don't forget to check the Expo Pages on our website for the list of Door Prize Sponsors this year and to check out the "Expo Participants" Lists on the Expo page for Vendor Show Specials, which are starting to roll in and will be updated daily from now until the Expo.

As withthe past couple years, we will be conduction a Lake Ontario Beginners Class in the Morning in the Seminar Room and a Kids Fishing Clinic in the Afternoon in the Seminar Room.  Since there's no way to cover everything we need to in any kind of in depth in an hour and a half, The Beginners class at the Expo will be part 1 of a 2 part Free Seminar, with the follow up taking place on March 9 at  the Newfane Community Center.

 

Thanks Everyone and we'll see you next weekend.

It depends on the vendor.  At least a couple will have wireless card readers to accept credit cards.  Most will probably be cash/check only I would guess.

[ITO Flies]

I can say for myself I will be able to take credit cards with my smartphone but cash is better!
