Big One Shows Tackle giants sign

Bigger stands and more tackle promised as top names sign up

-

FISHING’S big boys – Korda, Guru, Preston Innovation­s, Korum, Sonubaits and Avid Carp – have this week all confirmed they are to attend The Big One shows in 2020!

In addition, in a bonus for all coarse, carp, and match anglers, they’re planning even bigger stands with more new tackle launches than ever before!

As tickets went on sale a fortnight ago, Angling Times revealed there would be TWO The Big One shows again in 2020, starting with an expanded Midlands-based event at Stoneleigh Park on Saturday February 29 and Sunday March 1.

This new show will be followed just three weeks later by the famous The Big One

Farnboroug­h, all set for Saturday March 21 and Sunday March 22. The Big One show director, Vince Davies, said: “You can’t have the biggest fishing shows without the biggest brands and so I’m delighted that we’ve managed to secure their attendance for the 2020 events.”

The Korda carp team, including Danny Fairbrass, Ali Hamidi, Neil Spooner, Tom Dove, plus Guru-backed anglers Dean Macey and Steve Ringer, have been a must-see for all visitors to the event, offering one-to-one advice and show-stopping stage performanc­es.

Preston’s team are remaining tight lipped about their new launches but have confirmed they are to ‘go big’ with an expanded stand space that will blow visitors away.

“There can be no denying the powerful draw of the Farnboroug­h Show, and that appears to extend to Stoneleigh,” a spokespers­on for Preston told Angling Times.

“We are really eager to make the most of both shows – with more floor space, improved branding and more interactiv­e elements on our stand.

“All four of our brands draw crowds, but we anticipate new levels of engagement following a number of changes to our physical presence.

“Preston Innovation­s, Korum, Sonubaits and Avid Carp are all bringing new things to the table – in more than one sense of the word!”
