The Fly Shop Review

If you need it they will most likely have it lots of verity

Very helpful folks, even for a beginner like myself. They were very patient, and took the time to listen to everything I had to ask.

I love The Fly Shop! I ordered my first fly rod from them in June in preparation for my first fly fishing trip ever. During a practice casting session in the front yard the tip of my brad new rod snapped. I called the Fly Shop and talked to Kyle. He over nighted a new tip for me so I would receive it in time for my trip! Customer for life!!!

I placed an order, and checked online to get tracking info for my upcoming and last fishing trip of the season (maybe). Couldnt find a tracking number, so I called up. Christina was incredibly helpful, tracked my package down and asked me when would I be going fishing......I said this weekend. It was Wednesday. She said it wont make it. She then re-filled a new order, sent it overnight so that it would make it by thursday and I would be safe for my fishing trip. That's customer service!!!

Great bunch of guys here. Super friendly and they know their stuff.

Hey I've been using you guys since 1980 for both guide service and fishing materials and think your great in that respect, but why have a stream report and not keep it updated just a courtesy observation. thanks

Best place for gear and fishing reports in the 530.

I stopped on the way back home to Portland to stretch and show my wife an incredible fly shop. Mike the owner made the presentation to her and then sank the hook.
Hook-up. Gee thanks.
This is an incredible fly shop with a huge selection of everything. The help is the best and will answer all your important questions or find them.
Give them a stop and see, or Check out there web page. Right off I-5 freeway South end of Redding Or.

The Fly Shop has a fantastic staff who are knowledgeable and friendly.

I've had good and bad in this shop. Going back to 2003. I didn't get his name, but I'll say, one of the more seasoned fly fisherman was ultra helpful today and very friendly. Thanks shop!

Best fly shop in California. Great selection of fly fishing products, and more importantly, they have an excellent staff that is willing to provide local advice. Sandy is my favorite, but all are good. I always make sure I purchase what I need from them.

Great place, wide selection of fly fishing gear, High quality products for a great price, and the people who work there are helpful, and kind to the customers. Best fly shop west of the Mississippi River

Very great customer service JT I believe his name was help me out with all the questions for saltwater fishing and what would be suggested for sealed bearing reels in high-performance action rods with wonderful lifetime guarantees and come with a high-quality case and also a brochure for the whole company

Very Good fly shop and the service is good and thay now there stuff and what the fish are bitting on

I'm a complete fly fishing rook. Was recommended to this place and they did not disappoint. Very patient, helpful, and knowledgeable and totally willing to answer my basic questions and provide some guidance in buying a reel. If you are anywhere near this place make it a point to stop by. If not, get a catalog immediately because these guys are an excellent resource.

Most awesome fly shop on the planet... I've been in a few..... Really helpful people... Take their advice... You can really catch fish too!

Good place for a pokestop and the women are cheap to

Local upscale fly shop with world-wide fishing presence

Came here to buy flies for a friend. The guys were extremely helpful and pointed me in the right direction for the location and time of year.

Very helpful, and always nice. Great customer service.

A real fly fishing store, in the tradition of Jimmy's All Season in Idaho Falls...

My wife and I dropped in to The Fly Shop while travelling past Redding, CA, and we are very glad we did! It s a well-stocked shop and the staff members are very friendly, helpful, and forthcoming with good information. We we also fortunate to meet Mike Michilak, the owner, who is a great guy! We ll definitely be repeat customers.

Knowledgeable and helpful staff. Best assortment of flies and fly tying materials that I have seen. Have purchased 6 wt, 8wt and indicator rods all performed great, good warranty replacement too.

Great place! Also the staff is super knowledgeable and friendly, not stuffy. Mellow dudes. Zach was great in helping us find the best guides trip for my father and I. Great organization of info. for trips.

If they don't have it, you don't need it.... enuf said...

Fabulous shop. Selection of tying materials is first class.

From the very first day I walked in these guys have helped and answered all of my questions. I highly recommend this shop

Very helpful. Answered all my questions. Very knowledgeable about fly fishing. They also offer lessons on how to fly fish. Definitely will be coming back for those classes

Some of the most helpful people in the world work here. Had a wonderful time!

The people there are really nice and helpful, it's not a stuffy place. They're willing to meet you at your experience level.

Prices are a little on the high side, but the variety of flies and knowledge/helpfulness of the staff more than make up for this.

Jesus was pretty 'Fly' for a white guy....or was he.....

Wonderful store. Great variety of goods but a bit pricey.

Great fun, great expertise. But too pricey for a local. So long as they are sticking it to the tourists, that's okay, of course.

Love this place!!!has everything u would want for fly fishing and omg they every fly imaginable.if u fly fish u need to check out this place and they even book trips and have guides

Great shop, love the selection and wealth of knowledge. Next time I'm in town I'll be sure to stop in!

Very helpful with getting a good set up for a fly fishing newbie.

Great! Frendly helpful people. Super products. Fly fishing heaven.

Knowledgeable and friendly guides that share their craft wholeheartedly which makes for an enjoyable and memorable day on a norcal river.

Better communication between shop and client in need of an overhaul.

Prefer engaging personally with guide over front office a day or two before a float trip.

Had a great time. In from Hot 'Lanta and had an awesome day even though the fishing was rated "fair"! Never fly fished, truely green behind the ears! Mike explained everything, had me practise then we went fishing! Had a strike and missed it royally! Mike my guide, teacher, and friend. Yes I would consider him a friend! Said well somethings there so ho rowed up stream to where we started and we started all over. Next 2 hits I landed 2 trout mo shorter than 18 inches. Overall, I caught 15 to 20 trout. Had a great experience! I welcomed the end only because my back started hurting and I started getting tired! I am hoping to get up there one more time before I leave the San Fran area!

Love this shop! Friendly and knowledgeable staff with all the gear you could possibly need for northern California flyfishing. They'll treat you well and get you exactly what you need to "go get 'em."

One of the better fly shops in northern california. Most staff demonstrate that they are in the water fishing when they can because of the knowledge they able to share.

This place is like a Macy's for men. Lol .... they've got it all, along with excellent service. I highly recommend !!

They have EVERYTHING that you would possibly need for fly fishing. The guys are very helpful too. Don't miss a chance to stop in.

Got a two stars for the equipment they stock. Otherwise the staff isn t very friendly and not very helpful. Felt super awkward and stuffy.

Lots of fly tying materials (my favorite) friendly helpful staff

The Fly Shop is an old favorite since it opened, way back when. They regularly have what I need, when others don't.

Very helpful staff, wide range of quality services. Involved in the local and international fishing community. Fly shop signature products great value. A great asset for Nor Cal. Thanks Redding Fly shop!

This is my favorite place to go spend money. Hard to earn but real easy to let go of in this shop. All the staff are helpful and know what they are talking about. They have the biggest selection of everything fly related out of any shop I've ever been into. Prices are the same as on the internet and even if they were a bit hiked up I think it's important everybody supports their local fly shop. Sandy is the most knowledgeable and understanding person I've ever met. He's helped me so much. If you don't buy anything at least get a hat to rep the best fly shop in the country.

The best gear around for trout with updated/current fishing reports.

An exceptional online source for all your fishing and travel needs.

Very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable service. Will definitely be back!

Great shop, excellent selection, the folks there will set you up with whatever you need to fish the region. So many options for fishing they will tell you what's working and what's not.

World class fly shop. Fantastic range of patterns and great local knowledge, listen carefully.

They have a great selection including the unparalleled Jay Fair's Flies. Talk to Zach for more information.

I have certainly been to my fair share of fly shops over the years and across the planet. The guys who own and work in the shop are some of the very best in the business.

These guys are the best fly fishing outfitter in Northern California! ~Kennedy Brothers

Outstanding! The best selection of gear. The best, knowledgeable staff. And their guides are professional, friendly and will make you a better fisherman.
Hands down, the finest fly shop in all of California.

Absolutely love this place and all they have to offer. I first learned of the fly shop in 2010 as a camper at their fish camp. That was awesome and since then I've come back for gear, tying equipment and even on the way to more of their lodges and land! Everytime I feel welcomed and am gracious for the knowledge and helpfulness of the staff both on the phone and in the store. Lovely gem in the middle of California!

Incredibly good service and follow up. Would recommend them for any fly fishing needs. Great, helpful staff that go the extra mile. I have worked in the service industry my entire life and these guys are top drawer.

Best fly shop in the state. Very helpful. Unbiased report on fishing streams and lakes

The staff is super friendly and helpful! They are always willing to help you pick out wjaybuou need for your next trip. I will continue to go there as long as I am able to keep fishing!

Great shop. Loved the variety of items they had for us. We were just passing through and got great info on what to use, and where to go and even some camping recommendations. The gentleman that helped us was very friendly. Highly recommend stopping here before heading out.

I'd like to give them a better review but whoever answers the emails and questions about orders sucks. They have great products and from other reviews their customer service is great in store. But my experience with them online doesnt share that same great customer service. I guess maybe if I was spending my thousand$ on their gear it maybe different. But the most I spend with them is a couple hundred on flies that are out of stock where I live. The girl who answers the emails is always short and seems irritated to have to do her job. Or....she's on the rag every time I have to email them. Either way they need to find another email - order girl or someone give her a midol or pamperin. But I do get what I order, I'll give her that, other than that sometimes I'll get a wrong size 16 or 18.

I want to start out by saying that because of the fly shop, my brother and I are now closer then we have ever been. It's all thanks to their helpful staff that went the extra mile to ensure that our trip was made special. I wanted to take my brother fly fishing for the first time. I myself knowing very little felt overwhelmed. A friend who's a local here all his life told me to stop on by and talk to the guys in the shop. Needless to say I'm glad I did. To make this trip even more special I was asking my brother to be my best man. We had hardly any tackle, no flies, and one rod with a toasted reel. The guys there made sure that we had everything we needed. They didnt over sell us just made sure we had enough to get us into some fish. They even pointed us to spots on the sac and recommending times of day and evening to go. My brother and I now share the love of fly fishing together and plan to make a trip every year as a new brotherly tradition. I can't say how grateful I am to the staff at the fly shop for their outstanding service but also their compassion and empathy. Truly, a class act.
