In
August of 2007, I had the opportunity to fly fish the flowing
waters of southwestern Alberta for a period of ten days. Since
I usually fly fish lakes, my selection of fly patterns prior to
the trip was somewhat limited. I sought out flies in my hometown
but was not impressed with either the selection or the quality
of flies. I did however come across Glenbow FlyFishing Fly Kits
in a local store, was more than impressed with the quality of
the flies, which in turn led me to their internet site.
I contacted Glenbow FlyFishing concerning the quantity and type
of flies I would require for my trip. Glen was very cooperative
answering my questions and ultimately we agreed on a quantity
and selection of flies for the rivers I would be fishing.
The flies I ordered arrived promptly and without any problems.
They were well packed with the type and quantity of flies clearly
marked on each package of flies. The flies were of very good quality
with an apparent consistency throughout.
The real test for me was to fish the flies and see how they stood
up. This turned out to be a non-issue as they held up and performed
beyond my expectations. One Elk Hair Caddis stood up for nearly
two days of hard fishing with very little wear before a rainbow
stole it.
Overall, I was quite impressed with the entire experience of
ordering through Glenbow FlyFishing. They do good honest business
and provide an excellent product.
