Daytona FATC 2023 canceled

Post by Mike N »

Dean just texted me and Dr. E that the FATC has canceled the Daytona show in February 2023 due to hurricane damage suffered by the hotel. First the pandemic and now this. The FATC graciously grouped ORCA members together in the Daytona show room (probably to keep an eye on us.)

This is yet another reason to try to get to as many tackle shows as possible and make some trades and memories, because you never know.

Here is link from Joe’s of upcoming shows:

I saw this posted under the Daytona cancellation on the FATC site. I hope it’s right:

“ The FATC is diligently search for an alternative venue. We will be updating you shortly with a new and exciting plan.”
