Default online fly companys

ive just had a look through the fast mail tackle catalogue and the flys look good and cheap too.
Has anyone used these?any good? the postage is only £1 and so it should be too as thats all it costs.
ive used essential fly and although the flys are very good,my god they are slow!and £3.50 postage.sorry but it dosnt cost that in my opinion thats a bit dishonest.

Best one I have tried for the price is Trout and salmon fishing flies online

Excellent service and quality for the bucks. A tad over dressed, but good enough to fish with and don't fall to pieces either!

Fastmail are excellent value for money and delivery is pretty quick too. I'd always phone my order through mind as sometimes certain flies or sizes are out of stock and they sometimes send an alternative which is not always what you want. Spend over a tenner and you get fly boxes at 1/2 price too (but the postage cost goes up)

i used flies online for my flies before i tied my own. and this being my first full season out fly fishing. i noticed my butcher patterns are falling to bits. the flat gold body and ribbing had come lose and i have never used it. not on all of the flies i might add just a few.

I`ll second that
and they only ever charge me a max of £2.50 delivery and for flies that are well packed in individual boxes and 9 times out of 10 arrive the next day thats not bad plus they send you a 10% or 15% discount code via E-mail every few weeks
