Overview

Our mission is to design and develop the gear you trust to succeed for every fly fishing adventure.

Values

Helping Others In the Sport

We remember what it is like first time you try out fly fishing. It takes time to learn to fly fish, but once you get the hang of it, it’s addicting. That is why we are determined to help educate and support people interested in learning more about this amazing sport.

Protecting Our Waters & Fisheries

We believe that nature and all the wildlife we get to enjoy are a gift from God. So we believe it’s important to advocate for keeping our waterways healthy and well populated. We believe in protecting our streams and fish to ensure great fishing opportunities are still around for our future generations.

Relentlessly Serve Customers

It’s really easy to say things like “Customers are our #1 priority,” but often this is overstated and under demonstrated. We want to change that by listening to our customers, giving insightful answers to your questions, creating quality products, getting orders shipped quickly, and making returns a painless experience. 

Giving Back

We believe in giving back and supporting non-profit organizations that are doing good in the world. From disaster relief to improvements to fisheries, we want make a difference by leading with generosity. We will be deciding on which charities to support, how to structure it, and when to implement it during our first full year in business, 2022.

God & Nature

Every time we go out and fish, we can’t help but be reminded by the beauty of nature and the intelligence of wildlife that there is a God. We believe being out in nature brings us closer to God and that nature points to a Creator in all its complexity and beauty.
