Buying flies.

[JIMCCS]

I`ve tried and tried tying flies but I`ve lost some of my dexterity due to breaking my hands a few times some years ago and can`t get it right, not when you see some of the creations put on here.
Mallochs in my home town of Perth don`t have a good selection of trout flies (that I want anyway), so can you recommend an good online source.

this site looks to have a good choice

There hasn't been a lot of traffic on there so I don't know if there are still people willing to help.

I sometimes buy from the US. This company offers first class service on more unusual stuff

I also home-buy run of the mill wets that I can't bothered tying

I'm not a fly tyer, hope to het into it but I think lack of dexterity and poor eyesight will overcome. At the mo use the following:-
http://www.flymail.com/
and
http://www.dragonflies.co.uk/store/

One of the two do excellent klinks, think it is Dragonly.

I think the main thing is if you're buying flies, avoid fly supermarkets.com. Poor quality hooks and poor quality materials 

Links on this thread are good and Caithness flies seem to be highly recommended, definately seem to be high quality flies.

Next time I get the vice out I'll send you some up Jim

I was using "The Essential Fly Company" but they kept sending me junk emails and when I opened one of them my computer went all tae feck.
I`d happily pay Forum members for flies Don. :wink:

Jim, the flies would be FOC. I'm loaded with the cold at the minute but will tie you some up as soon as the Lurgy clears
