boat show

[clancy]

Was wondering which show is at the convention center in Minneapolis January 17-21; the "boat" or "sporting"? I saw some recent entries relating to the topic, but with conflicting information. Which of the two would give me the best opportunity to see the most fishing boats? I have heard that the boat show is more ski and pleasure boat oriented. I would be travelling a long way to see one of these events, and would like to make sure I have my information right. Thanks.

I would wait until March for the Sportman's Show. There is a lot more information on fishing boats and a lot more of the "pros" that use products and are there to answer questions.
