Here Is What Just A Few Of Our Customers Have To Say About Our Flies
Montana:
I can't tie flies anymore. It's an eye thing. Finding this merchant online was a great boon to me. I am very
willing to pay more for quality flies. And these are quality flies. They have that extra detail that, for one,
inspires confidence in the fly, and, for another, provokes dreams of trout by just looking them over in
your hand.
The flies look remarkably like insects. I could place one on the kitchen counter and fool anyone into
thinking it's real until they pick it up. Some of them look delicate but they fish very well and hold up. Their
mature caddis, when dowsed with floatant, have fooled some very particular slow-water trout for me.
There was no hesitation in the trout that these were real caddis floating by.
I've made several purchases from The Perfect Fly Store and their flies are now the ones that fill my fly
boxes and provoke my visions of the magic of this endeavor. They're a little more expensive but worth it
all the way. I suspect they'll be a major supplier of my flies for a long time.
Pennsylvania:
I just wanted you to know, your flies are great. I bought some last year and discovered that your caddis
worked wonders in slow, clear water. i think it's supposed to be a sinking caddis but i float it becuse it's
so realistic. It has fooled some wary trout. For me, it's the ultimate caddis imitation and I doubt any
trout with an inclination to eat a caddis would pass it up as long as I get a good float. I have yet to fish it
wet but I plan to and will have high confidence.
Your beetle is the only foam beetle I use now. There's something about it. I fish an area where the trout
seem bent on avoiding anything larger than a size 22. Tiny ants work there sometimes but they're hard
for me to fish. Your beetle works there too in size 14! I'm sure it's because it looks so darn real.
You sent me some extra flies with my orders last summer. One was a small stonefly nymph that I didn't
know what to do with. I had no stoneflies in the streams I fish. Then I saw one climbing skyward in one
of my streams. I tried several nymph patterns with no luck. Then I found yours in the bottom of one of
my fly boxes. I bounced it off the bottom of some very clear, deep water where I could see some
monsters sulking. One took it without hesitation. I truly believe it was tied so realistically that that trout
had no qualms. He'd seen that before and knew it was food. That's what pretty much led me to this
current order where I picked up more of your stoneflies, among a few other flies for restocking.
Thanks for including it as an extra last year. It made an otherwise quiet day very exciting. I buy a lot of
flies from a lot of different places. Yours are definitely my favorites. I can't tie for various reasons, so I
really appreciate the high quality and effectiveness of your flies.

We wrote back and ask permission to use this: His Answer:
You can use my comments on your website. They're damn good flies. I had another one on today on
that stone but he caught me napping and I never set the hook. I saw him twist away from it. Nice size to
him. Such a surprise. Low, clear water and they're going for something that big. That says something.
I just wish I knew more streams that had big stone flies living within. It's fun not having to deal with a
#22 or smaller fly this time of year.
Flies Used In Great Smoky Mountains National Park:
We hit Roaring Fork, Cosby, Middle and West...with a trip up Porters to boot. Great fishing. Great flies. I
still have much to learn about your nymphs...but top water was great. Best trout was out of Roaring Fork
about 1/2 mile up from the store near the end of the loop...bout a 14inch bow.
Thanks for your help.

Another One:
James,
Thanks again for your time on the phone. I was looking up sulfur hatches on Google when I found your
web site here and to my surprise I found "the best fly-fishing web site ever". Your illustrations of the
different insects (Mayflies, Caddisflies & Midges) and hatch reports for the different areas of the country
are excellent.
Living in Wears Valley TN, I usually fish the streams in the park and tailwaters of Tennessee but now
that I have experience your web site I am equipped with more knowledge to fish rivers and streams
across the nation.
Thank you so much for providing such a useful tool for fly-fishermen at any level.

James Marsh (The Perfect Fly) flies are quality products at a bargain price. He also gives excellent info
on how to fish them, and a natural history of the specific insect. I highly recommend.

Yellowstone Trip:
Perfect Fly,
Before a trip to Yellowstone this August your web site provided invaluable information on flies I should
use on specific waters within YNP. I previously fished in Sep-Oct but August was a new experience and
your advice on August patterns was right-on-target. More importantly, your web site also cautioned me
on the potential for rattlesnakes within the Black Canyon of the Yellowstone. In eleven years hiking all
over YNP I never encountered a rattlesnake but your warning kept me alert on the possibility throughout
the 30-mile hike. Slightly downstream of Knowles Falls the rattler began warning me of its presence,
thank you.
Sincerely,
Jim Nock
Arkansas:
Good morning James,
Mark Lowry here from Arkansas, I didn't get to make it last fall due to a medical issue and I am foaming
at the mouth to get there this spring. As you can probably tell from my orders I am planning a trip to the
park. I have 2 questions if you don't mind. I read something some time ago in one of your articles about
felt sole wading boots, what was that about? Are they now illegal to use in TN or in the park now? I don't
want to do anything illegal or transfer any algae from one stream to another. And the other is about the
spring season, would you say it is spot on or a week or two early or late in the park? Here in Arkansas I
would say it is about a week or 2 early but as we both know that can change in the blink of an eye.
I had such great success fishing your "Perfect Flies" last trip that all I am going to fish with this year is
the Perfect Flies...just hope I have enough..lol. This year I am going to keep a journal on all the streams,
conditions, and the flies that I fish.
I appreciate all the time, effort, and knowledge that you share with all of us in your articles, that is what
has changed my results fishing the park....thank you again.
Mark Lowry
