Bass Pro Shops' World's Fishing Fair in full swing until Sunday

The World's Fishing Fair had a rainy start as it kicked off the first day as hundreds of vendors and exhibitors showed their wares to the mingling crowd. Celebrating Bass Pro's Outdoor World's 50th anniversary, the fair returns since it first debuted in 1988.

"The weather might be a little rainy but we have a great turnout and a great crowd," said Jeff Wilhoit, spokesman for Bass Pro Shops.

There's a bit of "something for everyone" among the fair's lineup, including seeing NASCAR legends like Dale Earnhardt Jr., Martin Truex Jr. and more Thursday, and Paw Patrol and Dude Perfect Saturday, Wilhoit said.
