The Complete Fly Fisherman has received worldwide acclaim for presentation, photography and editorial integrity. We strive to produce a publication that is not only exciting and visual, but provides for the thinking angler. The Complete Fly Fisherman’s vision is to enlighten people that this pursuit is just what is needed to balance ones life to be able to cope with the demands brought forth by modern living. The magazine is aimed at the travelling and thinking angler. Editorial include articles on destinations, adventure travel, tackle and techniques, fly-tying and satire. We focus on all species that take a fly, both in fresh and salt water. Published by fly fishermen for fly fishermen, we understand and live the passion.
