Fly Fishing Shows 2020

 One of the best ways to overcome cabin fever during the long winter months is to attend a fly-fishing consumer show . . . or perhaps several of them. This year, show season kicks off a month early, as the Great Lakes Fly Fishing Show is this weekend in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Then things really get rolling right after the new year in Denver, with The Fly Fishing Show and the International Sportsmen’s Expo on consecutive weekends. Over the next four months, there’s a wide variety of events from Washington to Massachusetts, and from Texas to St. Paul.

Every year, the list changes. Here are the shows on last year’s list about which I could find no information for 2020:

Western Michigan Fly Show

Hawkeye Fly Fishing Association Meeting & Show

The Fly Fishing & Wingshooting Expo

Cheyenne Fly Fishing Expo

Western Maine Fly Fishing Expo

Top Winter Fly Fishing for Trout Frying Pan and Blue River

Tailwater Below Pueblo Dam Great For Winter Fishing

PUEBLO — Whether going through withdrawals from the fishing season past, looking ahead to warmer days or merely celebrating the new year, fishermen might consider a quick snack of popcorn trout.


"Yesterday was very similar to today, weather-wise," Alex Zipp, manager of the The Drift Fly Shop (formerly ArkAnglers) in Pueblo, reported Monday morning, not long after nighttime temperatures had plunged well below zero along the Arkansas River in Colorado's old Steel City.
"The afternoon fishing was pretty good, though, from about 1 o'clock to 3. There were midges coming off, and the fish were even coming up for dry flies in the quieter water below rocks. It's been pretty consistent that way."


Indeed, the consistency of winter fishing in the tailwater below Pueblo Dam has become a magnet for fishermen from the entire Front Range and points beyond. "Where else in Colorado can you find fish coming up for dry flies and emergers almost every day throughout the winter?" Zipp asked, accounting for the river's surge of popularity.
