maxmotorhaar Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Hi there, I am interested in fly fishing and I have heard a lot about hand tied fishing flies from Chiang Mai. I know that there are several companies located here in Chiang Mai where womens are tying fishing flies. Does anybody in here know where these companies are located? Please. help Regards.

Mahseer Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I have passed your enquiry onto one such Company. I know the person in charge is busy but let's see if he gets back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmotorhaar Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 Is it not possible to take contact to this person? I have interest in doing business with him. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahseer Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 He's not answering his phone so I suspect he's on a river somewhere. Give it a couple of days and see if he surfaces. If you wish to PM me your number I'll willingly pass it on. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the QUALITY of the product that varies, and that depends on the manager of the firm. I tie excellent flies myself and have been a fly designer for years, but I'm always impressed by the quality of flies that Jon's ladies produce. I'll send him an e-mail and get him to check this topic. Flies specific to Thailand are much different to most fly patterns for other fish species in the world. We are still experimenting to come up with effective patterns for Thai fish species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boksida Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Go to the Hash Pub near the Mae Ping Hotel and leave a message for "Superman". He manages one of the factories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sojourner Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Is it not possible to take contact to this person? I have interest in doing business with him. Regards Thai-a-fly generally does export only and the product they produce is designed elsewhere with exclusives to the company marketing the product. They have over 200 staff and produce a single design in volume. If this is your idea then you need to see or call John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
