“The cape was a one off dye job, when it arrived it was a little damp. Not a problem to me an hour on the radiator and it was fully dry. It might have been a problem for a beginner though.”

Hi and thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear the cape was a little damp. Having dyed this bespokely for you, a service that we don't normally offer that we did especially for you, we hope the colour was to your liking. So because this was a special service, it shouldn't be a problem ongoing as mentioned. If there is anything we can do to help at all please do let us know. Thank you and best wishes from your friends at The Essential Fly

“The service at this establishment is second to none, with knowledgeable help if required. As I am fairly local, I have benefitted from the face to face experience but I'm sure the postal service is equally as good. Watch out for the special events, such as the recent demonstration by Hans Van Klinken (Klinkhamer). Well worth a try for your fly fishing needs.”

“Hello, I am a french fly fisherman and love your products and your choice. My orders are always OK. But I thing that your delivery delay is too long: 7 days from UK to France. But you are perhaps not responsible for this fact. Greetings. Have a good day. Jean-Jacques Mouloise”
