This may be the single best opportunity for suppliers to meet and chat with the most avid fly fishing consumers and our exhibitors know this," said Tom Gadacz, President of the Florida Council of the International Federation of Fly Fishers (IFFF). "We're excited for all those who will be part of the what may be the biggest and best Florida Fly Fishing Expo in the six-year history of this event."

The schedule will also include workshops for women only.
