It’s Sportshow time again.  Over the next couple of weeks, Lake of the Woods Tourism is displaying at two different sportsman’s shows across the Dakotas.  This is a great opportunity to learn more about the area, resorts and of course, the various kinds of fishing the go along with it.

This Weekend, Red River Valley Sportsman’s Show in Fargo!  It’s sportshow season in the Dakotas and this time of the year, anglers are excited to talk Lake of the Woods fishing.  Perfect timing to be talking Lake of the Woods at this weekend’s Red River Valley Sportsmen’s show that starts Thursday and runs through Sunday at the Fargodome in Fargo, ND.  Once again, we will be holding down booth #166 and look forward to seeing everyone.

Next Weekend, Sioux Empire Sportsman’s Show in Sioux Falls!  Outdoor minded folks from the Dakotas and the surrounding region love Lake of the Woods.  Once again, we will have our normal location in the main exhibit hall, booth #87.  Swing by and say hello!

Learn More about Lake of the Woods!  One of the great advantages of a sportshow is spending some time with experts from a destination to have the opportunity to learn, ask questions and ultimately make the best choice for your group.  A group of guys headed up to fish for four days might be a very different looking trip than a husband / wife getaway or family vacation.

Joe Henry with Lake of the Woods Tourism will be at the Lake of the Woods Tourism booth all weekend both in Fargo and Sioux Falls happy to share info and answer questions.

Seminars!  Sportshows are such a great place to learn more about fishing, hunting and the great outdoors.  In Fargo and Sioux Falls, check out tournament champion Ted Takasaki discuss the topic “Walleyes Love Structure” and

 

“Jig for Walleyes Like a Pro”.  Ted has a long and successful history in the fishing industry and has educated anglers for decades.

Joe Henry from Lake of the Woods Tourism will also be presenting at both sportshows.  Henry is a licensed charter captain along with a walleye tournament angler and outdoor media specialist.  He will be speaking about “Pulling Spinners for Walleyes Like a Pro” and “Feel the Noise for Summer Walleyes”.
