Upcoming fly fishing events here in Seattle with Emerald Water Anglers.  Book launches, destination presentations, movie premiers, art showings, casting and fly tying events abound.  We believe our sport is as vibrant and alive off the water as on so we are constantly bringing the broader culture of fly fishing to you.  Please see below for new events as they are scheduled and we look forward to seeing you soon.

May 2, 2024 | EWA Casting in the Park Evenings | Orvis & S\A | 4-7pm | FREE
Location | Lincoln Park
In lieu of our 10 year tradition of EWA Summer Fest, we have decided to do a free Casting in the Park on Thursday evenings through the summer, each one sponsored by one or more of our brands.  These will be a fantastic way to get some free casting instruction but also try out some of those new rods you have been wanting to cast.  No RSVP, just show up and spend some quality time with each brand not feeling as though you have to spread yourself among all of them in a short period of time.

May 4 - 5, 2024 | Dec Hogan Spey School | $350
Location | Fall City Bridge on Snoqualmie River
Back by popular demand, our bestest of buddies, Dec is back in the spring to do another spey school, Dec style.  Day 1 will be for novice to newer spey casters and Day 2 will be for more advanced spey casters looking to get into the finer details of casting and fishing what you just sent out there.

May 17, 2024 | West Seattle Wine Walk | 5-9pm | $36
