Best Online Tying Material Distributor

[jarrad barber]

Anyone know a good online distributor for Hairline and Wapsi?

[T. Wiles]

Bearsden and Feater-Craft are my two fly tying sites of choice.

[Phil Brna]

I order from several like Feather Craft, Cabelas and others, but the one that stands out for good quick service is saltwaterflies.com

Try StoneRiver Outfitters they have lots of stuff.

Over the past two years I have been using Bearsden frequently.

 All right guys I’m going to make one shameless  pitch here. If your looking for a place that carries  materials and  tools from all major suppliers and a few odd balls, keeps  track of your previous orders to make reorders easier and offers custom fly kits and tying instructions(this is cool ask about the details). Plus we have monthly specials, volume discounts and rewards points.
Contact me and I’ll give you all the details.

I got my start as a fly tyer in St. Louis, so I got to know the folks at Feather-Craft quite well.

Here are a few more names to add to the pot in addition to some good ones that have already been mentioned. I look for good selection, quick service, quality of materials, accuracy of order, items in stock, and reasonable shipping fees.

Mad River Outfitters
Front Range Anglers
Blue Ribbon Flies
Little River Outfitters
Hook and Hackle

Oh cool a couple more sites to look up.

[jarrad barber]

Thanks.

I don’t know what you mean by wearing out the folks at Fish Hawk.  They do have a good selection of tying materials and a wealth of knowledge.  Besides, they are local.  Their business has been slow because of the bad weather in Ga.  Go ahead and wear them out.

Look around, there are several places that have free shipping, or free shipping with a small minimum order. Also if they are out of state, you generally don’t have to pay taxes on your purchases. I don’t have any problem with supporting local business, but some of these shipping and handling charges are out of whack. The ones that really kill me are the ones that charge progressively more the larger your order. Dang, if I am buying a hundred dollars worth of stuff that cost them $2.50 to ship charing me $10-12 bucks is ridiculous IMO.

[kelly l.]

I agree with you on shipping.

[none]

For us guys living overseas it’s even worse. The shipping & handling costs of many (not some) shops are next to ridiculous. Most of the time the order will fit in a small jiffy bag envelope.

So indeed: which on-line fly shop handles reasonable S&H costs?

[anonymous]

Shipping is crazy.

Mike,

Gander Mtn. is clearing out a ton of tying stuff.

[kelly l.]

I thought it was only Gander Mountain around me getting rid of fly tying stuff.

[mick mccorcle]

It’s happening here in North Texas, too.
