Ultimate Sport Show Features Lake Ultimate An indoor lake? You bet! Back by popular demand, DeVos Place will be home to this huge indoor lake. With over 110,000 gallons of water, this lake provides the ULTIMATE opportunity for seminar leaders to present from rigged fishing boats while maneuvering across the water. These truly unique seminars are seen only at Michigan’s Ultimate Sport Shows in Grand Rapids and Detroit! Sponsored by Harbor Master Docks

Big Buck Night West THURSDAY, Seating at 6:30PM in the Ballroom Celebrity hosts Jimmy Gretzinger and Jenny Olson of Michigan Out-of-Doors TV Show, will interview the Michigan hunters who bagged some of the largest whitetail deer of the season. Special consideration is given to the hunters who have amazing stories about their trophies. This one-night show will be filmed for airing on the upcoming television program and is a must see for every Michigan deer hunter.

Woodland Woodcarvers Come and see the beautiful and impressive display of the Woodland Woodcarvers. Local artisans will display the results of their work, as well as demonstrate their considerable skills. Every year it gets better! Everything from the incredibly lifelike to the whimsically humorous will be on display and the carvers will be happy to talk to you about their work.

Fly Tyers Corner Presented by the Grand Rapids Fly Tyers Watch some of the top fly tyers in Michigan as they set up and demonstrate their favorite patterns or fulfill a request on the spot. This is a constant workshop for anglers that share an interest in this artful pastime.

Hawg Trough is Here!

Guest fishing experts will be on hand all weekend to provide seminars and fishing demonstrations on this mobile 5,000 gallon tank. Audience participation by both seasoned anglers and frecklefaced kids keeps the crowd entertained throughout the day.

Trout Pond Challenging anglers of all ages! Even if you come just to watch you will see the highest catch percentage of any trout pond you have ever seen. The Steelheaders will clean, fillet and bag with ice your catch for you at their booth for free. It only costs $5 to give it a try, proceeds benefit the Northern Little League.

The State’s Best Taxidermy On the 3rd floor “Grand Gallery Overlook” If this is your first time, come down and see why so many people say when they walk through the front door of the Sport Show is: “Which way to the Taxidermy?” The Michigan Taxidermist Association holds their annual competition and convention at the Show each year. Fish, deer heads, small and large mammals are all on display. Upwards of 250 mounts are entered! Most museums would love to have just a sample of this annual display.

Virtual Fishing Simulator Presented by the Michigan Charter Boat Association Simulated fishing? Yes, it is “virtual fishing!” Take the trolling rod in hand, watch the video screen and get ready! The salmon takes that lure like a freight train and your job is to land that fish. Michigan Charter Captains are on hand to coach your fish playing technique. Top scores win charter fishing trips on the Great Lakes! Proceeds benefit the Michigan Charter Boat Association Scholarship Fund.

Antique Fishing Tackle Terry McBurney, Woods-nWater News staff writer, will be on hand all four days of the Show exhibiting some of his “Made in Michigan” fishing tackle collection. Bring in your old fishing tackle tucked away in the barn, basement or garage and talk to Terry, who will be answering questions and offering FREE appraisals ...it might contain some valuable surprises.

Marvelous Mutts

The Marvelous Mutts, A Canine Spectacular, is a thrilling dog sport entertainment show that showcases some of the world’s finest canine athletes.

The dogs amaze audiences as they flip and fly to snatch Frisbees out of the air and race through obstacle courses with breathtaking speed. This seasoned crew of performing canines, all adopted from shelters and rescue groups and each with an amazing story, showcase their athleticism in a fast-paced, high energy, action-packed show!

Catch More Fish – Guarantee Affidavit We guarantee that all attendees of the Sport Show will catch more fish in 2016 than they did in 2015.

I attest that I attended the 2016 Ultimate Sport Show - Grand Rapids and attended at least one seminar, shopped for fishing tackle, examined the features of fishing boats and talked with exhibiting guides, and then still failed in 2016 to catch more fish than in the prior year while fishing as much or more.
