This year’s edition of the Toronto Sportsmen’s Show is now behind us and we can take all of a few minutes to catch our breath before we prepare for the stretch run to the opening of trout season in Ontario on April 25th. Thank you to everyone who came by our booth at the show. It was great to catch up with old faces and meet a lot of new ones ! Attendance was up this year and we were very pleased with the number of people who came by our booth asking for information on our guiding, travel and fly fishing school programs.
If you are not aware our Toronto Fly Fishing School has a new venue in 2009. This year we have partnered with the Toronto & Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) to hold our 1 day beginner fly fishing schools at the Glen Haffy Fly Fishing Club in Caledon. Our follow up On-Stream Instruction courses will again be held at the Forks of the Credit.
Many who came by our booth were also very pleased with our new fly fishing travel program which is aimed at putting more money back in our customer’s pockets. You pay the same rate whether you book a trip direct with a lodge or through our store but because we are a retailer we are paid a referral not available to the general public. Our travel program simply turns the lion’s share of that referral back into our customer’s pockets. Again, the price is the same whether you book direct with a lodge or book through us but if you book through WILSON’S we give you a gift certificate to spend in our store worth 10% of the trip value. This program also applies to any guide that you book through our fly shop. If you are interested in going to a lodge or booking a guide who is not yet on our program please let us know because we can call them and see if they will participate and if they do we will give you the gift certificate. If they choose to not participate we will let you know and you will pay the same rate as you originally planned but without the benefit of receiving the gift certificate from WILSON’S. It’s that simple !
As the guy on the bank commercials says, “Why not save your money…”
