The sport of fly fishing has been around for years and years. In medieval times, anglers fished for food, but the sport has evolved over the years to become a real test of skills. Anyone who has become involved in the sport of fly fishing knows how addictive in can be – but in a very good way!

Fly fishing is most often done for the various species of trout that exist in the waters and streams of the Western United States.

Artificial flies are constructed and “tied” onto a hook with thread, fur, feathers and other materials in sizes and colours to match naturally occurring food or simply to excite a fish.
