The original show was due to have taken place in January but due to snowy weather conditions which covered Norfolk, it had to be rescheduled for 16-17 March. However this has meant that the show is now even bigger than it previously would have been – with the event spreading further than 50,000 sq. ft. through the indoor exhibition halls.
Some of the big names which will be headlining the event include Norfolk’s very own celebrity John Wilson as well as Bob Nudd, Rob Maylin, Jerry Hammond, Keith Williams and Danny Fairbrass.
Adult tickets can be purchased on the gate for £10 each, or pre-booked online at a reduced rate. Once there you will find over 120 top fishing companies and manufacturers of clothing, bait, tackle and equipment at great low show prices.
Huge names Korda and Nash have confirmed their attendance as have: Fox, Trakker, CC Moore, Mainline Baits, Eric’s Angling, and Angling Direct. There are also magazine publications and book publishers – many of whom will be bringing along top-rated authors for book signings. PLUS brand new TV channel for Archant ‘Mustard TV’ have confirmed they will be coming along to film this great day out.
The show offers everything, with product launches from Advanced Technology Tackle, Mad Baits and Nash, who will be demonstrating their Deliverance Ball Maker; to angling celebrities John Wilson and Bob Nudd, plus expert consultants on every stand offering great fishing tips, advice and product reviews. Fishing legend John Wilson will host a rig clinic for youngsters to come and learn the best methods to tie a rig, Bob Nudd will host a presentation in the Pro-theatre and local blogger Jamie Bale will discuss the best places to fish in Norfolk and Suffolk.
Rob Maylin, Pete Springate and Jerry Hammond will all be signing copies of their books and chatting with guests, whilst Keith Williams will demonstrate bait recipes in the Mainline Bait Kitchen with Leigh Hemsley in the Mad Baits Clinic, plus much, much more.
