Testimonials

Got the flies in the mail today: just what I was looking for – well-tied, small Dahlbergs.  I’m particularly interested in trying the "Flathead Diver”; it’s an interesting color variant and I love the red flash.  Hope the smallies do too.  I’m sure I’ll be back for more once the season gets going.  Steve

This will be my second order from your firm in the last few weeks. My confidence comes from my dealings with Tiffany, who was terrific in helping me through a postal service challenge. She was efficient, courteous, professional and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Please extend my personal thanks to her for her strong efforts.

With over $200 worth of flies ordered in the past 6 months I can say definitively I am a customer for life.  I grew up fly fishing with my father, and am accustomed to spending around $2 per fly.
