Fly of the Week

@anna_on_the_fly is on the water constantly. She is constantly trying new things -- new flies, new techniques, and new gear. We are grateful that she's an Ambassador for DiscountFlies. And, we're grateful that she shares her knowledge and adventures with us in the "Fly of the Week" (or month during the "off" season) Column.

Below is a listing of the flies that have been featured in our Fly of the Week blog post.

Please note that this is a compilation of flies that have been highlighted at some point in the past in our Fly of the Week blog post. This is not a listing of flies on special this week. Our weekly newsletter, which you can sign-up to receive at the bottom of this page, will highlight weekly fly deals. Perhaps one of our future fly deals should be all of the flies featured in the "Fly of the Week" column...stay tuned!
