About Us:
The Perfect Fly Store is an online and catalog mail order company established to sell fly
fishing products worldwide. The company is based in Sevier County, Tennessee, and other
distribution locations. It was established primarily to distribute "Perfect Flies" and fly fishing
gear directly to the customer at a reasonable price.
We do not have the typical, walk-in retail fly shop business and its associated overhead
expense. This makes it possible for us to provide customers free shipping and handling
anywhere in the Continental United States. There are no minimum purchases required for
this.
About Perfect Flies:
"Perfect Flies" were designed for one simple reason. We wanted to provide anglers a
specific imitation (fly) for everything fish eat. We also wanted anglers to know exactly
what their fly imitated, so we named them using the actual insect or other food name. They
are also identified by scientific names just in case there is any question about their
common names. Unlike most flies, they are not named "Bubble Head Purple People Eaters"
or names that are meaningless.
The process took over nine years of research, testing and development. It took three
years to teach our fly tyers how to tie what most tyers would consider difficult to tie flies.
The flies require more steps, time and far more skill to tie than most commercially
available flies. For example, our small mayfly dun patterns use goose and turkey biots for
the abdomens; dubbing for the thorax, two, upright split hen feathers for wings, split tailing
fibers for tails and dry fly roster hackle for legs. Our larger mayfly dun patterns use
extended bodies with split, upright hen feathers for wings. The process not only required
teaching our tyers "how to" tie the flies, it also required teaching them to tie the flies at a
rate to where they could be sold at a reasonable price.
Perfect Flies have been designed to imitate all the major food the most popular
fresh and saltwater species eat. Our mayfly imitations for trout include the nymph,
emerging nymph, emerging dun with the shuck attached, the dun; and the spinner. Like
anything else, they are not "perfect". The flies we created from scratch are not "generic" or
"attractor" flies designed to imitate a variety of insects or foods. They are simi-realistic,
specific imitations of every major food eaten by fish that can be taken on the fly.
When it comes to trout, these flies don't just "match the hatch", they match what hasn't
hatched, what is about to hatch and what hatched and died. When it comes to any species
of fish, you can count on them to match the real foods found in nature that the particular
species of fish you are trying to catch survive on. Perfect Flies will increase your odds
of success. Simply put, they will help you catch more fish.
