EMERGER FLY FISHING - On Craft, Design, Build, and On the Water

One of the highlights from being at the Fly Fishing Show in Denver earlier this year was spending quite a bit of time with Chris and Randi Freeman of Emerger Fly Fishing.  After years of trading emails, text messages, and the occasional phone call, it was good to get to know them both better and to hear their plans for the future.  Good gear, and this is some of the best, means so much more when there are good people behind it.  If you follow on Instagram, we hinted at an upcoming collaboration recently that I hope we can share more on soon.  The Retro Fly stamp came out SO good.  

In the meantime, I thought it would be good to share some past T.F.M. posts that tell the story of Emerger Fly Fishing with background to share the process on how their side bags are made, design updates, and then of course, a couple of favorite fly fishing stories from the Driftless where the updated Cameron Side Bag (and Hybrid Wallet) came along for the trip.
