With the disappearance of large national shows like IFTD, the fishing industry has been missing an affordable, practical place to connect face-to-face. That changes this fall.
BTI Sports, a leading OEM and wholesale manufacturer of fly-fishing and general-tackle products, will host the Rocky Mountain Fly & Tackle Trade Day at La Quinta by Wyndham Denver Englewood Tech Center, 9009 E Arapahoe Road, Greenwood Village, CO.
The three-day event is designed for fly shops, tackle retailers, guides, distributors, and brand managers who want direct contact with manufacturers, discover new products, and explore private-label or OEM opportunities.
Attendees will preview BTI Sports’ newest rods, reels, lures, and accessories, including several 2026-model introductions. Visitors can also bring their own samples for discussion of custom builds or branding projects.
“Our goal is simple — to bring the industry back together in an accessible setting that helps independent shops and guides strengthen their own brands,” said Chao Hang, founder of BTI Sports. “We want this to be a working trade day, not just a show floor.”
Admission and exhibit participation are free of charge; space is limited and advance booking is encouraged.
