The American Fly Fishing Trade Association (AFFTA) has postponed this year’s IFTD trade show in Denver, Colorado.
Its President, Ben Bulis, said in a statement issued in the last hour that in view of the completely unpredictable path of the COVID-19 virus and length of the industry’s—and nation’s—social and economic recovery, it has elected to take decisive action to protect its people and its businesses and continue to find ways to weather these times together.
He said: “Make no mistake, this was an exceedingly difficult decision for the AFFTA Board. We are in completely uncharted waters, but we promise to be as diligent and as responsive as possible in leading our industry through these tough times.”
