After their modest start Brad left the business in 1987 to move into the world of stocks and bonds. With a little help from the bank and a lot of hard work, The Fly Shop® is proudly celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. “Here at The Fly Shop®, it’s always been about people. Since April of 1978, I’ve worked to surround myself with the most talented staff, the best products, and the finest angling travel destinations in fly fishing. Along the way, most of our customers became our friends. Everybody says they’re the best, but my people have been proving it since our doors opened. And after 40 years our reputation says it for us.” Thank you to all, Mike Michalak – Owner What we do Over time, The Fly Shop® has fortunately attracted the employment of some of the best talent in the West.
