OUR FLIES
Category 3 has made a conscious decision not to sell flies directly to the public. We believe in supporting the heart of the fishing community—your local tackle and fly shops. These stores are more than just retailers; they’re gathering places, knowledge hubs, and essential parts of the angling experience. By choosing to stock our flies exclusively through these trusted partners, we’re encouraging anglers to shop local, get expert advice, and help sustain the businesses that keep the spirit of fly fishing alive. We’re not skipping you—we’re supporting your local.
