ICAST 2020 goes virtual

The International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades (ICAST), the American Sportfishing Association’s trade showcase of what’s new in the fishing industry, has been cancelled for 2020 due to COVID-19.

Originally scheduled to take place from July 14-17 in Orlando, the physical event will switch to an online format for this year.

“As the largest sportfishing industry trade show in the world, we look forward to producing ICAST 2020 Online, our version of a ‘virtual trade show,’ that will provide a wide variety of tools and a wealth of information that you’ve come to expect from us,” wrote president Glenn Hughes.
