Being in my late 30s, I am very lucky to have my grandfather still around, especially since I have a kid of my own, so it’s super cool that he gets to know his great grandpa. I know a lot of kids don’t get that privilege, so we try to remember how lucky we are. We take a long weekend twice a year to all go fly fishing together, which includes my son, myself, my dad and my grandfather. It’s really neat to have 4 generations together at one time.
We try to make the most of our experience for obvious reasons, so a big part of that is buying products that are good quality and easy to use. It takes a lot of the stress out of the trip, and that’s essentially what we strive for. We’d rather have a great time together than deal with little snafus that we could potentially run into.
Plus, my son and grandfather obviously require some assistance due to their age and motor skills. It’s important that we know what we’re doing and exactly how something works so it’s easier to assist them. Not every company is very helpful or provides much information for their products. Many of them just assume that their customers are seasoned experts or something.
We started purchasing from Trouts Fly Fishing a couple of years back. It started off small and then led to bigger purchases. Overall, we’ve been really happy with our decision. They’re an awesome company with a lot of great products and stellar customer service to boot.
Most frequently, we purchase our trout flies from them. My dad and I like the euro nymphs and my grandfather and my son prefer the dry flies. Trouts Fly Fishing makes it easy to order them both in one big order by letting you split the quantities. Everyone wins.
The orders are always correct, shipping is prompt, and if I ever have a question or a small issue their customer service is on point. You really can’t ask for more from a company. They’re also really knowledgeable about the sport of fly fishing which is just an added bonus, since like I mentioned earlier that not every company provides so much information on their products.
I’m super grateful, because Trouts Fly Fishing allows us to have a stress free experience while fly fishing together. With 4 generations involved, the experience is really priceless. Making the experience easier has allowed us to continue to take these trips. I highly recommend them to anyone who enjoys fly fishing.
