Hill's Discount Flies

Here's a plug for Hill's Discount Flies. They are a great online source for flies and it's been my experience that orders can arrive within 4 to 5 days after placing an order.

Should Felt Soles Be Banned?

Click here on Felt Soles to read a Field and Stream article about the possibility of banning felt soled wading boots. If this is the case, does anyone need a pair of worn Chota wading boots? CHEAP!

One Fly Fisher's Verdict on Vibram Sole Wading Boots


After much analysis, I found a well written article comparing felt sole and Vibram sole wading boots. I have added the link here for all to read.

Vibram Sole Wading Boots

Improved technology can definitely have an impact on fly fishing equipment. Good or bad, the effect of technology on the fly fishing industry is no different than any other outdoor sport. It seems a lot of controversy has risen out of the new Vibram sole wading boots. Depending on the source, I've read both positive and negative reports. Now that I am in the market for new wading boots, this discussion is hitting home. Either way, I am leaning toward Simms.

I hope there are fly fishers out there who add their comments from their personal experience with Simms wading boots with the Vibram sole. Help me make my decision.

Virtual Fly Guides are "fly fishers guiding each other by sharing their personal reports". And in this case, their knowledge of equipment.
