“I was delighted with the service and prompt delivery to Wyoming in the USA. I was hoping that the names of each of these classic wet flies would be included on the display card so that I would know what fly I was using as well as what fly to reorder when needed. Thank you for the excellent products and service.”

“I occasionally buy flies from this company and have had no problems . The latest delivery was a surprise in being an unexpected magazine competition prize. I can say that the quality of the flies, mainly buzzers and nymphs I would rate as excellent and when I've 'lost' these will go back to buy more. Thank you The essential Fly.”

“I have yet to receive my order, but I'm in the US and I wasn't expecting it yet. You folks filled the order and shipped it out very quickly. I'll mention that I emailed a query and Sarah responded promptly and precisely. (Thank you again, Sarah!) Based on my experience so far, I expect I'll be quite happy with the materials I've ordered and will be adding Essential Fly to my list of fly tying sources. Did I mention the free worldwide shipping? Thanks!”

“I purchased some straggle string as I wanted to tie some fairly small flies and this was advertised as the thinnest micro chenille available. The product is brilliant, lots of different colours and very easy to use with superb results. Service is good and I particularly like the tying tips and other info that are sent on a regular basis. Very pleased.”
