“Thanks for the speedy customer service. Received the replacement a couple a days ago. Looking forward for a chance to try out this great looking fly.”
“Just a quick note to say that the package of materials arrived. Great stuff! Thank you for the quick turn around and the surprise gifts – very much appreciated.”
“I wanted to tell you that I had received my order. And I’m very satisfied.
Materials are very realistic. I am going to be able to create beautiful flies. Thanks to your products and for your seriousness.
Thank you again.”
“Frosty, got the order. Â Flies look great!!!!!!!!!!!”
“…Nice doing business with a company that cares! “
“Thanks for great fly tying materials. I love tying fishable realistic patterns!”
Dan’s Realistic Mayfly Nymph
“Thanks a bunch! Love what you guy’s are doing with the industry! By far, the coolest thing I’ve seen in a long time!”
“I would like to say great product, I have your mayfly wings and they are awesome and the fish love them…”
“..The realistic nymphs are so lifelike that they say it looks like it could walk away…”
“After 10 years of commercial fly tying, I have finally found a product line that supports innovation. These are the most realistic Hopper materials I have had the pleasure of tying with. I can’t wait for hopper season to come so I can watch trout swallow these off the surface. Do yourself a favor and get yourself a few sizes / colors of these and let your creativity run wild.”
“I use your material since a year ago and I try it last summer. They was a good stuff and solid..”
“…I like the Hemingway product then other I was trying.”
“…My first order arrived and was great, tied 40 caddis flies in about 3 hours.”
“…Thanks again for the great products.”
“…I use the L size on my golden stone adult foam bodies and they are killer!”
“The Hemingway products are the best!”
“…Thanks for responding. Love your products!”
“I just received two of your #12 size Realistic Wasp flies, and they are terrific! I plan to purchase several more….Thanks for your wonderful products”
“Thank you for excellent products and service. I have been a customer now for less than a year but am glad I found your website. I have been a fly fisherman for many years and the flies I tie with Hemingway’s products have impressed many seasoned buddies. I really appreciate the dubbing you sent for me to try. I will be a long term customer.”
“Love all the goodies for building some amazingly realistic fish bugs and really enjoy all of the informative and dare I say, inspirational, tying videos on the website!”
“I tested these flies out throughout the summer months. When I first looked at them, I was impressed by their realistic appearance, but was skeptical about the floatability of the dry flies. The minute I put the flies on the water, the concern vanished. They float. I fish a few streams that get pounded hard and these flies worked extremely well for educated and finicky trout.”

“Generally speaking, fly anglers want functional products that are also aesthetically pleasing. The Trout Landing Net by Hemingway’s hits the bill for both. The net is made of soft nylon so the creation takes into consideration the conservation of the fish. More than that, the finish applied to the handle indicates a pride of workmanship and a commitment to detail. The hand-crafted nets are made from Padauk and Walnut and would look good beside the bamboo rod on the wall in the study during the offseason.”

“Amazing rod at an affordable price! I have tried out a few different tenkara rods and owned one from a generic manufacturer before getting my hands on the Hemingways Petz rod. This rod puts them all to shame. The petz rod has a beautiful feel in hand, casts as smooth as butter yet has enough back bone to handle bigger fish. Great value, great quality and finally a company that is bringing this simple and deadly method of fishing to Canadian fly fisherman and women!”
“Wow to the realism of these stoneflies! Can’t wait to try these nymphs on two specific rivers that thrive in stoneflies in particular… the Piedra River in Colorado (brown stoneflies), and Rock Creek in Montana (yellow stoneflies). Should be a rodeo.”
“Awesome little fly box, well crafted.”
“I have used countless brands of barbless competition hooks over the last year and must say that the Maruto brand barbless dry fly hooks are on par with some of the big names in the industry at a fraction of the price. Also with most other brands of competition style hooks I expect to find 1-2 warped or miss formed hooks in a package, out of the entire shipment of Maruto hooks, around 150 hooks, I did not find a single hook that could not be used, very good quality control.”
“Very interesting hook. Very solid and strong and offset to the side which in my experience results in better hook ups. I can see this hooking working excellently as a trailer on an intruder of steelhead stinger style pattern.”
“…I just wanted to say thank you, and that it has been a pleasure working with. Very prompt and very personable…”
“I purchased a few packages of these tube bodies in different sizes and colors and have recently been playing with them. They make tying realistic looking extended dry fly bodies a breeze. Nice selection of colors and sizes, and easy to use.”
“For any of you out there that have NOT tried the Hemingway’s from Frosty Fly, you are really missing out. The wings they offer are second to none and as soon as I get back home I will be ordering Mayfly wings and bodies. Try some and fall in love with making realistic winged bodies all over again.”
  
“I grabbed a few packages of the Tube Fly System – Outer Tube at the local fly shop and have been playing around with them for tube flies over the last few days. Easy to cut, durable, nice melt when finishing the fly and great colors. Matched with the junction tubing creates some nice tube flies, and is very reasonably priced for what you get, a package can easily tie 4-5 dozen tube flies.”
“Great Dubbing. With some mixes I find the ratio of guard hairs to underfur very inconsistent. With the Hares Ear Plus ever mix I have used has been very consistent and ties some very buggy and good looking flies. The UV is subtle but adds a nice attractant quality to flies tied with it.”
“Before using this product I absolutely hated tying stone flies. Fiddling around with turkey tail wing cases drove me nuts and made me dread sitting down to fill my boxes. With the Hemingway’s Realistic stonefly buds and backs I no longer have any problem sitting down to tie a dozen nymphs to stock my boxes for trout and steelhead. These buds and backs are easy to use, durable and really make the fly pop and look amazing.”
