An obsession that has grown from a lifelong passion.

This all started when Rob was seven years old and his father would take him to drown worms in a local estuary, chasing bream and getting snagged. That was some time ago now, time that has seen Rob floating in boats, sitting on sand and hopping across rocks chasing fish. It was all fun and games until he took to a fly rod and that changed everything. Ever since Rob landed his first trout on fly, he have never cast another sort of rod again. This was the beginning of an obsession that has grown from a lifelong passion.

Jump forward a number of years to when one mate decided he needed to clear out some fly tying materials and sold them to another mate. It wasn’t long before he realized that he too didn’t need all of it either and decided to clear some of these materials out. Several years later and this spring cleaning of the tying desk slowly but surely evolved into what you see today, the Troutlore fly tying store.

So if it is quality fly tying materials, expert advice and unsurpassed customer service you are after get in touch with Rob at Troutlore.
