Welcome to another newsletter from us at Fishmadman – We have been terribly busy building our new webshop and have postponed the newsletters so we could fit the grand opening of our shop into the latest edition.
Everything took much longer than expected – But we are proud to be able to invite all readers into the great and very fishy fishing shop… A fishing shop just like we would like fishing shops to be – full of great fishing pictures… technical information, tips, and tricks.
We hope you enjoy our shop and take advantage of our grand opening sale

Trying to crack the code on our riffling hitch tube
The riffling-hitch and wake flies we do at Fishmadman is based on one model that constantly proves itself efficient – We took the fly to a naval architect to see if he could see through the twist and turns of this tiny surface fly
Read more about advanced model building and the complexity of the different dynamic forces involved.
New things in the shop
Wake fly changes
Together with our team of steelhead anglers, we have made some overall changes to some of our steelhead wake flies.
Size and color have been the main subject
Take a look at the series we have changed
Collection of 14 great colors
We’re a small fly tying company – and we can’t afford to buy all the material we need in bulk quantities – But we needed a steady supply of closed cell foam for our wake flies – so we bought big boxes of perfect foam.
Not the run of the mill colors…but all the right colors that we want. We also had some fluorescent colors of EVA foam made up especially for us… No flimsy foam – but clear bright colors in 2 – 3-millimeter thickness
Take a look at our great offer here
More foam…
For our mouse flies, we bought 6 mm. foam in two colors See them here
Iridescent Sunray Shadow Series
We promised to have the new iridescent Sunray Flies ready for sale before the upcoming season
Now they are in stock in all colors buy them while we have them on the shelf – Look here
