Here you’ll find listings of most fly fishing shops from down south in San Diego, up north through Orange County and Los Angeles, and then stretching even farther north into the Eastern Sierras. (it’s a bit of a drive, but worth it.)
Fly fishing shops, in my humble opinion, are a vital part of our sport and really need our help to stay open for business. Please support them whenever possible. They’re not only a great source for fly fishing gear, but also one of the best places to get accurate, local information for us fly anglers (and usually some good stories, too). If I missed a shop I shouldn’t have, please contact me Here so I can add it.
Thank you,
