Our Hood River staff generally numbers eight to ten people, with additional seasonal employees joining us during the busy summer months. From our warehouse and fly shop in downtown Hood River—next door to Full Sail Ale Brewery and Pub—we help customers and ship orders seven days a week.

Our local staff works alongside more than three dozen skilled fly tyers in Kenya, many of whom have been part of Big Y Fly Co for over a decade. Their experience, consistency, and craftsmanship make the quality and value of Big Y flies possible. They are trusted partners, friends, and essential members of our team.

We work hard to earn your business and make your fly-fishing dollar go further. If you are ever unhappy with a purchase, call or email us, and we will do our best to make it right.

Big Y flies can also be found in fly shops and other retailers around the country. We proudly support local conservation chapters, fly-fishing education programs, and fundraising events, including our own annual events benefiting Casting for Recovery and Project Healing Waters.

Thank you for supporting Big Y Fly Co through the years. Fish on!
