Hayward Fly Fishing Company

"Been dealing with Stu and the Hayward fly fishing company for over two years now. Finally was able to go on a guided trip with them on November first and was lucky enough to be placed with Mark and Jared. They went above and beyond to make our day great. Not only were they both knowledgeable and incredibly professional, but they were most importantly fun. Musky are a severely hard species to target and after multiple weeks of DIY fishing it was nice to get both advice and answers to numerous questions that set me and my friends up for success. As a industry professional who takes pride in my own work, not only was I impressed with the quality of the guides, but the atmosphere in the shop and the willingness of everyone affiliated with the shop to help me and my pals achieve success on the water in the future. 10/10 would recommend for anyone wanting to improve their skill set and have an incredible experience both on and off the water."

"Stu was very helpful when I was browsing and needed a new fly rod and reel. He didn't push me into anything I wasn't looking for. A couple days later, my wife walked in and bought what I was looking at. He loaded the reel with backing for free and a new line to suit my needs. We were both very pleased with this experience and would recommend this shop to anyone. His prices were right in-line with everyone else. Nicely done!"

"Great fly fishing store for flies, fly tying, name brand waders, boots, fly rods, reels, accessories and more. Stu is very friendly and knowledgeable."

"These guys are the damn best! I have been on a variety of different drift trips and each time I am impressed. Great instruction and knowledge; from teaching beginners like my 9 year old son, to supporting the addictions of the experienced like me. Professional. Experienced. Fishy. Ethical. Value Driven. I appreciate everything they do."

"This a first rate flyfishing operation. The shop is well stocked w quality goods. The guides are professional, friendly, instructive and know the rivers and how to fish them. I've fished with them for over 12 years for smallmouth and muskie."
