“New England has always been a popular and fun stop on the National Seminar Series, right from the very beginning 25 years ago.” says George Poveromo. “We are thrilled to bring this special New England edition seminar back to Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun Casino, and conduct an information-packed and entertaining day. The amount of cutting edge information dispatched by our faculty teams borders on the incredible. And with our line up of leading national and regional angling authorities at this seminar, it will be nearly impossible to leave without learning something new, despite an angler’s level of experience. The fact that we’ve been touring going on 25 years now is the greatest endorsement to the amount of how to and where to information contained within the Seminar Series, and the quality in which we dispatch and reinforce that information to the audience.”
