I was very impressed with the quality fly selection. Even the "cheap" flies were miles beyond the flies available at big box retailers. The fast turnaround was outstanding. I plan on doing a lot more business with Tenkara Fly Shop.
I ordered up a mixed dozen Tenkara flies and after ordering realized I gave the wrong ship to address... I sent an email asking for the address to be corrected... next morning I got a reply saying it was taken care of... I was also notified that my order shipped. Great follow through on even my small order. Flies showed up as promised and they look great. I'm a novice fly-tier and like to look at others work... these are really well tied. Great assortment too... various colored bodies and hackle. Hope to get close to this level some day. Can't wait to get on the water with these... Great experience overall. Also nice to support a small business that knows what they are doing... a nice signed thank you note from Jim too. Great job!
I can't wait to get them in the water. I also appreciate the craftsmanship, the price, and the individual attention.
My experience with Tenkara Fly Shop was world class. As a relative new Tenkara fisherman, the advice I received was invaluable. The communications was quick, detailed, friendly and excellent. The flies I purchased were exactly what I needed. I have definitely found my one-stop shop and the first place I will go when I need gear for my Tenkara. GREAT customer service!
I just started tying flies and ordered the tool kit. I was very pleased with what I received. Some folks think you need to spend hundreds on vises, bobbins and scissors to tie good flies, not so. For $45.00 I was on my way. I have recommended this to others on Facebook chats.
Excellent - Jim is a great customer service provider and ties some amazing quality patterns. I will be buying more int he future.
Jim is a fabulous person to work with. His communication, packaging, and shipping are first rate. I can testify that his flies are not only beautiful to behold, but the fish find them irresistible!
I've ordered from Tenkara Fly shop twice. Both times I had a very fast response, and my order was delivered quickly, and with exactly what I ordered.
Very easy to order, customer service is second to none, fast delivery & great communication. As a beginner in Tenkara, the selection of flies works well on panfish & I anticipate they will do well thru the ice for crappies this winter. When I run through these, i will be sure to order more along with some of Jim's flies.
The best site for Tenkara flies, with great personalized service.
Jim has been nothing but straight forward and is a great asset to the community. From flies to some really cool kitch, great shop.
If you're just starting out in Tenkara, this is the best value for your dollar.
I am extremely happy with my recent purchase from the Tenkara Fly Shop. Jim, the proprietor, was very friendly and helpful with advice and the order was sent very promptly. The flies are excellent and the free little wooden fly box was an added bonus and an indication of the generosity and fine customer service that Jim has. I would not hesitate to place another fly order with the Tenkara Fly Shop.
Everything received promptly and to my expectations
No worries, well made, fast delivery, nicely done all around, can and will order again in the future.
I was very pleased with the flies I received my only complaint was I had some questions that went unanswered via email. Being new to the sport I just needed a little direction.
While the turn-around time of my order would not have been considered speedy, Jim was in contact with me frequently updating me on the status. I thought of it like the experience of going in to a steakhouse for a fine cooked meal rather than rushing through a drive through. And the end quality product exceeded my expectations! Tight lines!
Great service, great communication, and nice flies.
Answer: Hi Jim, thanks for the inquiry. Due to Covid 19, I am currently closed and not taking orders at this time. Yours, Jimmy Wright
Answer: Hi Bob. First I must tell you that the store is currently down due to Corona Virus and my ability to ship. Generally: My minimum order for free shipping is $20. If you want to pay an additional shipping charge, then there is no minimum. I tie kebari in the sizes that I list because those sizes make the most sense. I will still tie in alternate sizes in some cases. Alternate colors are based upon the colors that I have in storage. I don't send out for special colors of materials due to the low margin of this business. It's mostly what you see. Thanks for your interest. Lets work to get past this pandemic so we can get back to the things we love. Yours, Jim
Thanks Sharon. I am sorry that I missed your questions. I took another look at your order and email but did not see them. Of course, I just upgraded to Windows 10 so it may have gotten lost in the sauce. Please let me know if you have any more questions. Best regards, Jim
