“Thank you very much for supplying me with flies which arrive promptly and in good condition. At the moment I am building up my stock of flies for the coming season, but last summer with my first order from Essential Fly, I went out and immediately caught three trout with them, so I was very pleased!”

“Call me the last of the big spenders if you like but my order was for 6 Griffiths gnats (#18). They arrived within a couple of days, I went to my favourite still water today (11th January) and caught a tiger trout and a rainbow off the surface. Boom!!”
