Hi Mike,
Myself and my group of fishing friends have been using Mike Mailey to tie our flies for the last 5 years. He’s been around shops and guiding since the 80s.
I usually have my special requests and then ask him for his advice and favourites. The quality is outstanding with hooks, materials and cement. I don’t recall having a single fly come apart until it’s caught several fish.
He charges by the hour and I have found the prices to be more than fair for what I get.
It’s been working out really well for me.
Dave
