The School of FlyFishing provides a collection of items and pricing ranges as a reference service to students. It is meant to give guidance as to what to expect as a practical range of costs to purchase items relating to fly fishing. It is not a "price quote" resource.
Each element is given 3 pricing measures: low, high and average. This pricing data is compiled from regular retail sources of information that is available to the public. It does not contemplate the very high end custom-made area.
Click the individual item for details on how it is used in fly fishing and for links to where to purchase.
