Flies Fishing

Flies Fishing

can you selll flies to Fly Fishing shops?

If you can do you have to have a license? And how old you have to be? And how munch will you get for the flies?

Yes, you can sell flies to fly fishing shops.

Yes, you need a license -- a business license. You'll have to keep track of business fees and taxes. No, you do not need a license to actually tie the flies commercially, but various credentials and certifications will help. Like classes or learning from particular, well-known individuals.

There are no age requirements, other than the age restrictions on doing business. I'm sure there is a minimum age to get a business license.

I don't know how much a fly shop will pay you for flies, but I know that a fly shop near me marks up their flies by more than 100 percent. Considering that they sell their flies for around 90 cents a pop, I guess that means they're paying their tier 30 or 40 cents apeice..?

Things is, you've got to tie scores and scores of dozens of patterns, and they have to be very consistently tied. If you look at the flies at a good fly shop, all the flies look almost exactly alike, they're attractive, and they're sturdy. I know three or four guys who tie commercially or have in the past (including the guy who taught me), and they're all older dudes who have LOTs of time behind a vise.

You'll need wholesale connections to buy materials -- you'll need to make each fly cost you as little as possible and make your margins as wide as possible. Finding materials of high quality at good prices and quantities will be a big challenge. If you buy your materials from ordinary places (like fly shops), you won't make any money.

You also have to be reliable and flexible. You have to be ready to go all winter with no orders and then fill big orders at other times -- if you let your shop run out of BWOs in June too many times, they'll find someone else. On the other hand, you can't have a ton of materials and flies on your hands -- that stuff costs you money and you've got to be sending them out all the time. Finding several shops to tie for would be best, but of course that means tying more flies...

Sheesh, I don't even know much about this and it's already too complicated for me to even consider -- and I bet I'm simplifying things.
