FLIES

Home/FLIES

Fishing in Alaska requires unique flies. Alaskan trout and char have a far different diet, and prefer very different flies, than trout that live elsewhere. Salmon and steelhead usually want an attractor pattern of a certain size, color and profile. Matching the right fly with the conditions you will face is the difference between catching a few fish and having a day of a lifetime.

We have the largest selection of Alaska fly fishing flies available anywhere. Whether you are catching salmon, trout, char, or grayling, we have the flies you need.

How do you know which fly patterns to buy? Our knowledgeable staff can help! Call (907) 586-1550 or email us for more information.
