Recommendations for a Basic Fly Box

MORE ARTICLES


Question: Do you have a basic fly box you would recommend for the White River?

Answer: We get lots of first timers to Arkansas’ waters, or new comers starting fly fishing wanting a box of basics you can use any day of the year. Sure there are others that will work on one-day, one week, or time of the season.But this is our pick for a reliable starting point for yourself, your friends, or visitors. And we can put together boxes ready for you to pick up, custom orders, and even custom ties.  Check out our Online Fly Selection or call us!
