The Fly Fishing Film Tour returns this winter with a milestone season, marking 20 years of bringing fly fishing stories to big screens around the world. The 20th Annual Fly Fishing Film Tour stops in Spokane on January 30th at The Bing Crosby Theater, with the show beginning at 7pm, offering Inland Northwest anglers and outdoor enthusiasts a chance to be part of a long-running tradition rooted in film, water, and community.
Since its early days, F3T has grown into the original and largest fly fishing film event of its kind. What began as a traveling showcase of niche storytelling has evolved into a cornerstone of fly fishing culture, gathering anglers of all backgrounds to watch, reflect, and connect. The 2026 anniversary tour honors that legacy with a fresh lineup of films drawn from across the globe, each capturing a different facet of life on the water.
This year’s collection leans into more than just fish and destinations. The films explore wild places, conservation-minded narratives, and the people who shape their lives around rivers, coastlines, and seasonal rhythms. Striking cinematography and thoughtful storytelling anchor the experience, whether the focus is remote water, personal challenge, or the quiet satisfaction found in time spent fishing.
The Spokane screening offers more than a night at the movies. F3T events are known for their sense of camaraderie, where conversations flow easily between longtime anglers, newcomers, and those simply curious about the sport. Attendees can also expect giveaways and special guests, adding to the communal feel that has defined the tour for two decades.
Presented by Skwala, Yeti, and Costa, the 20th Annual Fly Fishing Film Tour reflects both where fly fishing has been and where it continues to head. For some, the evening is a midwinter reminder of seasons past and waters yet to be fished. For others, it may be an introduction to a culture built on patience, curiosity, and respect for place.
After twenty years on the road, F3T remains a gathering point for stories that begin and end on the water, shared one screen, one city, and one community at a time.
