Google "fishing tackle birmingham" and you will get plenty of results.

Don't know if this is near you but you could try them

Lyttles of Dunchurch for your Game Fishing needs

Not been myself just know them for their proximity to Draycote.

Hope it helps

I spent most of my spare time today doing this, calling them only to find that they don't do fly fishing/tying kit..

Thanks Loopy & ASW

Lyttles of Dunchurch is your best bet - they have a pretty good range of fly-tying gear, but worth calling in advance if you're looking for anything in particular. Closed Monday I believe.

They seem to be responsive on line at least.

Archline Angling at Cannock have some fly tying gear and are very knowledgeable on fly fishing, unlike a lot of midlands tackle shops. You could also try Loynton Trout fishery near Stafford who are an Orvis retail centre, but Littles are certainly your best bet.
