We’re excited to announce the 2026 Great Waters Fly Fishing Expo to be held at Hamline University in Saint Paul, MN, March 13-15. We’re looking forward to being back at Hamline University’s excellent amenities to offer the best possible event for exhibitors, speakers, attendees and the fly fishing community as a whole. MNTU retains an emphasis on a strong diversity of fly fishing activities represented including warm water and salt water.
