    Default Aight den!

    FInally going to get back after some trouts and I looked around Greenville and the economy has taken its toll on all the local fly shops that had been here (Foothills, and that Orvis place on Augusta)..It's been awhile since I looked. Anyone know of an upstate fly shop? I am guessing Dick's and Academy might be all that offers any kind of fly tackle. Thanks in advance.

    Default Fly stuff.

    Nitz-

    Both shops been out of biz for awhile. If you're in G-ville, its about an hour up to Davidson River Outfitters- a cool shop stocked pretty well. Asheville's got Hunter Banks Outfitters- another well stocked fly shop. Dicks and Academy both suck. Better to ride up and hit either of the shops I listed, then fish the Davidson, Mills or Green Rivers on the way back home...

    I work in the Lodge department at Dicks and we do not have a HUGE selection of fly fishing stuff, but we have the essentials and a few misc items. If you give me a better idea of what you're looking for exactly I can let you know if we've got it or not.
