Go Fishing, NEC, Birmingham

Go Fishing is the UK's largest angling show, returning to the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) from March 14th to 16th.

The event has moved to a larger exhibition hall this year after more than 20,000 visitors attended the 2007 expo.

New to this year will be the Kids Go Free promotion, which allows free entrance to all children under the age of 14.

There will be shows to keep both experts and newcomers interested, with the Go Fishing Casting Pool allowing visitors to try their hand at a spot of angling under professional supervision.

An Interactive Zone will provide entertainment for younger visitors, with classes demonstrating how to tie flies or make the best rigs.

There will be a number of professional anglers providing master-classes on a range of fishing techniques, with a shopping village allowing visitors to make sure they've got the best equipment to try out their newly-learned skills.

National Express runs frequent coach services in and out of Birmingham and many other top UK tourist destinations.
