Gear & Fly Swap 2026: Empty the Garage, Fill the Fly Box

The 2026 TFF Gear & Fly Swap is on! Clear out the garage, raid the tying bench, and bring whatever fishy gear you no longer need. We're swapping, selling, and storytelling at State of Beer. Rods, reels, lines, leaders, waders, vises, hackle, hooks. If it casts, catches, ties, or floats, drag it in. Past swaps have seen everything from fly tying supplies to kayaks to streamside cookware change hands. And don't forget a fly box for some trading. Nothing beats swapping patterns with anglers who fish the same water you do. No gear to unload? Even better. Show up anyway. This is a social night first, swap meet second. New members and new fly anglers especially, this is your shortcut. Fill the gaps in your kit, get honest opinions on what's actually worth buying, and meet the folks who'll make you a fishier, more well-rounded angler. State of Beer is hosting us again with a great draft list, wine, NA options, and killer sandwiches. Street parking downtown is free after 6pm, with a few pay lots within a block. Buying, selling, trading, or just window shopping with a beer in hand. Come hang out. See you there.
