For two days each March, the Michigan Fly Fishing Club (MFFC) hosts the Great Lakes area’s premier event for all things fly fishing — the Midwest Fly Fishing Expo. The extravaganza, presented for 42 years, is the oldest all-fly angling event east of the Mississippi!
Organized and run exclusively by MFFC volunteers, the show typically features five headline speakers, dozens of free seminars about fly fishing skills, techniques, and destinations, dozens of fly-tying demonstrations, and more than 120 exhibitors. Exhibitors include outfitters and retailers from across the country, guides, rod- and net-building artisans, artists, authors, dealers in rare and collectible books and memorabilia, and conservation organizations.
