There are the local fishing swap meets that I have yet to go to.
Maybe someone else can comment on those.
Local buy n sell.
Ebay

You have to keep a close eye on those, because if its any good it will be gone quick.

Cheapskates on Dunbar...I got a Penn GTi 320 and a skaespeare ugly-stik (didn't really match) for $60...also got lots of other stuff, mostly saltwater stuff, lots of older gear but some new stuff.

I'm eyeing some gear right about now as well.

eBay is a good place for fishing stuff

I've got some smoking deals on fly lines and misc  from eBay.
Paid $15 with shipping for a Orvis 5wt Floating Line.
Paid $15 for a Cortland 444 Clear Stillwater line
Paid $5 for a one of the those 8 LED headlamps so I can flyfish at night :)

However you do have to be careful, I almost paid $150 for a gold finish  Redington AS Fly Reel, which I later found out you can't easily find spare spools for. Sure are nice looking reels though.

(all prices in US funds)
