Great place for the new and experience fly fisherman. The staff are experienced, friendly, and welcoming. There is a large selection of flies, fly tying materials, apparel, rods, and anything else that you might need!

Mad River Outfitters is your one-stop shop for everything fly fishing. I live in Virginia and got hooked on watching Brian's videos on YouTube. I felt it was only right to support their business since I was essentially getting a first rate FREE education on all things fly fishing. Every order has been shipped fast and flawless. I also love calling them up with questions as they are more then eager to help. Hope to visit the shop one day.

They do and honestly they can set you up with an outfit that will fit your budget and maybe even be better quality than a kit. These guys are awesome and will totally help you out!!

Hello, Love your videos, just starting in fly fishing. My question is backing, is there different weights of backing? What weight should be used for FW8F line? Thank you, Rodney Stephey 5 Old Hatchery Rd Enfield ME 04493

There are different pound strengths of backing. Typically, you see 20lb used for most freshwater applications and 30lb used for big rods and saltwater. I know Brian at MRO does a lot of warm water and saltwater fishing, so he could tell you when it is best to go up to 30lb backing.

D I have a t10-755 Algonquin Blanchard fly rod and was wondering if anyone can tell me what line weight it calls for Jim

The folks at Mad River are the best in the business. I didn't know anything about fly fishing. They took their time and thoroughly answered all questions, and gave me guidance you would expect from an expert.

Hey guys, love the videos. Can you tell me if there is a formula for building different size leaders? I generally use 9 foot, and would like to build 2x 4x 5x 6x complete leaders. Tapered ones are just way too expensive here in OZ. Thanks, Michael

Yes there is. Please send an e-mail to the shop and we’ll try to explain further.

Do you use a nail not for all of your leader connections when you build leaders?
