Unplugged: BC Boat & Sportsmen's Show / BC Hunting Show

Location: Tradex Trade & Exhibition Centre, Abottsford BC . I went out to the BC Boat & Sportsmen's Shot / BC Hunting Show at Tradex in Abbotsford this past weekend.

I went out to the BC Boat & Sportsmen's Shot / BC Hunting Show at Tradex in Abbotsford this past weekend. The 21st edition, this annual show is BC's expo of fishing retailers and manufacturers, boats, motors, trailers, camping gear & outdoor products, lodges and resorts, ATV's and all sorts of guns and equipment for hunting. A bit of a departure from our Unplugged features where we take you on an outdoor adventure, this was just a great show with all sorts of consumer products for fishing, camping and hunting.

Location: Tradex Trade & Exhibition Centre, Abottsford BC.

There were over 250 exhibitors plus a boatload of seminars, contests and prizes and I gathered a few images and posted to Instagram while I was there:

- Sweet knives

- $200 pump action shotgun

- Crazy tank quad

- Freshwater Fisheries live trout display

But really, I captured a single image that I feel encapsulates the awesomeness of this show: the absolutely incredible $1,600 rooftop tent from ARB at the Cap-It booth! A truly great invention, not only is it handy but it keeps you safe if you're way out in the middle of nowhere and there are bears and/or other predators around. I love this.
