IF INTERESTED IN ORDERING FLIES?
It has become very difficult to keep a good stock of quality flies as I tie many of the patterns myself especially the custom streamers. If you are interested in ordering flies and do not see stock available please forward me a list of what you would like in the chat, by email, or Facebook message. I will provide you a quote and delivery date and only accept payment when the flies are ready to ship. Please note that It will be very unlikely that I will be able to provide custom flies during the summer months (between June-August)
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause
