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.

August 1 & 2, 2026 | Simon Gawesworth Spey School | $350
Location | Fall City Bridge on the Snoqualmie River | 9am - 4pm
It is among our favorite things to do here at EWA, bring in those in our sport that have shaped it into what it is today.  Simon is among those who brought spey casting into the modern era here in the US and we couldn't be more excited to spend a couple days with him.  Each day is a separate school with 8 people maximum in each, sign up for one or both.  Lunch provided and we are happy to provide equipment for those who may not have any...yet!

This is one you are not going to want to miss.  It is one thing to come have a small group class with Dec, it is quite another to talk in depth on fly selection, sink tips and presentation that will disrupt so much of what the rest of the sport is generally talking about.  Well here it is!  Each day is a separate class with a maximum of 6, sign up for one or both, up to you.
