Free Shop Boat Show

If cabin fever is starting to set in, there’s no better cure than heading to Bass Pro Shops at 323 Opry Mills Drive in Nashville and dreaming about spring at their FREE Boat Show going on January 7th through the 16th.

The Boat Show is the best place and time to get important information during the FREE boating and fishing seminars available both weekends. Topics include “Do-It-Yourself Service” Saturdays at 1pm, “Local Fishing Tips” Saturdays at 2pm and “Using the Latest Electronics” Saturdays at 3pm. Sundays at 1pm learn about “Towing Your Boat”, “Organizing your Boat to Fish” at 2pm and get “Local Fishing Tips” at 3pm.
