Sea fishing has one of the most committed communities in UK angling – and a tackle scene that deserves a serious national platform. Shore, boat, kayak, lure: the audience is there, the brands are there, the methods are evolving fast.
HOOKED! National 2027 gives sea angling that platform.
What to expect
Sea fishing shares a standalone hall with predator at HOOKED! National – its own space, its own identity. Shore, boat, kayak, lure: it’s all here, given the room and attention it deserves.
The dedicated brand areas are where the real value sits. Pick up the rods, feel the reels, ask the technical questions, get straight answers from the people who actually make the gear. The retail perimeter is where you stock up: show-only prices on rigs, leads, hooks, line, and the kit that disappears fastest from the tackle bag.
The Angling Skills Arena will run sea-specific sessions – rig building, bait presentation, casting technique – led by experienced shore and boat anglers. Reel Talk LIVE will feature dedicated sea fishing sessions covering gear, marks, and methods.
For brands and exhibitors
Sea fishing brands need the right environment to tell their story – technical products, specialist audiences, and the space to demo properly. HOOKED! is built around that.
A dedicated hall, dedicated brand areas, and a format that puts product education ahead of discount-led retail. Your products get the technical storytelling they deserve, in front of an audience that’s there to discover.
Stand bookings are open now with a 10% early bird discount before October 2026.
