Trout On Fly

Trout On Fly TROUT ON FLY is Supporting & Sponsoring Fly Fishing Clubs and Individuals. Trout On Fly was set up in operation by my self Jamie Penney in 2015.

I am a small business that is growing as time goes by. I have over 10 years experience and knowledge in fly fishing and always continuing to learn from high profile fly fishers. As well as traditional fly patterns, I also tie my very own custom fly patterns and variations. All my custom fly patterns are fully tested on the trout in my local waters, undergo final checks or adjustment before being released to the market and available for purchase. Should any patterns fail to be successful while undergoing testing, they also undergo any required adjustments and re-tested. For all my custom patterns to be deemed successful, they must have had success at multiple hook ups.

I will be fishing the Wastell again this year.

I held the lead all weekend last year, only to be beat by 1/2cm in the final minutes. Hoping to get on the board early again this year. 🐟🐟
