The Lake Ontario Fishing Expo & Flea Market was put together by LOTSA to help with funding of the Trout & Salmon Pen Rearing program at Olcott, NY. The Olcott Pen Rearing project successfully reared over 420,000 Trout & Salmon sonce the project's inception.  These projects take a significant amount of man power and $$ to run. The typical pen costs over $1,400.00 and requires ongoing maintenance year after year.  When crises arise, such as the Salmon River Hatchery Egg Collection problems that occurred in the fall of 2007, these pen projects become more and more vital in preserving our trout and salmon fishery into the future.

The Expo will also help satisfy the needs of the Lake Ontario Fishermen who have cabin fever at this time of the year by offering the latest on both new and used tackle to purchase. We expect to have an exhibit hall filled with Charter Captains, Tackle Manufacturers Tackle Shops etc., looking to sell both new and used tackle and equipment at show special prices, as well as just talking fishing. If your thinking about booking a Charter for 2011 this will be an excellent opportunity to to make that decision. With our excellent Spring Fishing right around the corner, use this opportunity to get the information and tackle that you need for the 2012 season.

Food and beverages at very reasonable prices will be available for purchase on site.

Admission is a $5.00 per adult attendee as a donation to Pen Rearing.

Each manufacturer listed below has sponsored an hour of the EXPO when their products will be given away as door prizes. 

Each hour, winners will be selected at random from the number of Expo attendees through the door to that point.  The numbers drawn will correspond to the number on the back of your admission ticket.  With your $5 admission (donation to pen rearing ) you will be entered into the door prize drawing and must be present to win the door prizes.
