Just took flies out of boxes as ordered them when I was away working, all nice flies and look well tied. Will hopefully try them this time off but did buy them for when I'm on mainland Scotland

Ordered some AHRX hooks that were showing "in stock" although it turned out one particular size that I needed wasn't. I was kept informed and within a few extra days they arrived with me

Great selection and extremely fast delivery. Flies are good quality on decent hooks, tho some patterns arrive looking a little different to the photo. Caledonian flies always excellent. Shopped here many times and will continue to.
