When ordering please keep in mind that we tie all of our flies ourselves. We are not a production shop and most of our orders are filled on an as ordered basis. We do keep some of our favorite patterns in stock so if you need something fast you may want to e-mail us ahead of time to check on its availability. Also, if you are planning on ordering large quantities, (more than 4 dozen) please e-mail us before hand to discuss shipping times. We are currently 10-15 days behind on orders of 1-2 dozen flies, so an order of flies up to 2 dozen will take 2-3 weeks to ship as of January '08. Orders over 2 dozen will vary depending on quantity. Please check our update page by clicking here for more current information regarding orders.
All of our fishing flies are tied on Mustad 94720, 8X long streamer hooks in sizes 2, 4 and 6. We also tie all of our patterns for display purposes which are tied on an 8X Mike Martinek Rangeley Streamer hook which was modeled after a hook Carrie Stevens actually used. For more information on the hooks we use and comparisons to other available streamer hooks check out Global Fly Fisher and their hook review page which gives information on most available streamer hooks. http://globalflyfisher.com/streamers/raske/hooks/hooks.htm Click the link to see what other serious and impartial featherwing streamer tyers have to say about the hooks we use.
Our display streamers are shipped in a fleece lined, hard plastic clear case similar to a baseball card case and all of our fishing flies are shipped on a foam card inside of a 2 mil. poly bag. We ship everything in a well padded box or envelope via priority mail with insurance and tracking numbers that allow you to follow you order on-line so you have the information on exactly where your shipment is when it leaves our hands.
We ship all US orders by USPS Priority Mail with delivery confirmation. We will add insurance if you request it which is an additional fee so please contact us before ordering. Continental US delivery times are 3-5 business days roughly. All other orders are shipped Global Priority and delivery times will very depending on location, but its never longer than 10 days, even when shipping to Japan or Australia. We can ship via a different method if you would like, overnight for example, if you do not want the USPS Priority or Global Priority, so please contact us for an estimate before ordering.
