    Default Website for Salt Water Flies

    Howzit guys
    I know a lot of you guys tie your own salt water flies, but if anybody is interested a mate of mine ties and sells flies, the quality is fantastic and he will do custom flies if asked, I will be arriving in Cape Town from London on the 17 March and can make a plan to get them to you so you don't have to wait for them in the mail (thats if you live in the Cape Town Area)

    Tell Rupert he needs to work more and tie less! No, he can tie flies can our Rupert! Just not at Farlow prices.

    He works crazy hours and then spends most of his spare time tying new patterns or tying orders but the guy fly are quality, that's why I get them straight form him and not from Farlows

    We know! He pops into the shop when he ain't working. Sea Bass season coming up soon, so he must be very busy. Enjoy your trip home though.

    I like his flies as he ties them sparse.
