FlyWackers.com started out with just one, hand-tied fly. Quite literally "hand-tied". With all of the great fishing that Alaska has to offer, the local stores sell poor quality fishing flies. Made with natural fibers and lots of them which cause the fishing fly to mid-drift at best. This makes fishing for the Alaskan salmon very difficult since the fly cannot reach the fish in the faster moving water. A better fishing fly was born just using embroidery string and a 2-0 Gamakatsu hook. As with many first, the fly was primitive but it was also surprisingly very effective.  These rudimentry fishing flies were catching Silver Salmon at Ship Creek in Anchorage, Anchor Point, Homer Spit and even doing well at a little known spot off of Cook's Inlet. Passion for a better fishing fly led to the line of streamer flies we now offer. Designed primarily to meet the regulation needs of the Russian River Red Salmon these fishing flies also help you catch an unlimited variety of other fish. With every FlyWacker fishing fly tied, it must pass the test before a claim to its ability to catch fish is published on the website. Here at FlyWackers.com, we have over 300 different fishing flies but like you, we are only interested in the ones with a proven history of catching fish more than once. We developed the FlyWackers line of fishing flies for the varying possibilities that exist here in Alaska; however, we have had testimonials from tourist friends that say that our fishing flies also worked as far as the Spey River. One of our fishing flies is published in a popular fly tying magazine (may be offered at a later date). There are so many people testifying to our line of flies that many have suggested that we make them available online for purchase. So, you now have our FlyWackers' personal guarantee that if these flies don't hold up to the claim of quality that we swear by, then you may send the fishing fly back and we will gladly replace it or refund your purchase price, which ever you decide.
