Welcome To Barbless Flies

Innovative flies & superior customer service.

“We aim to bring to the market a wide range of river and stillwater trout flies, all professionally tied to extremely high standards using first-class materials.

We also aim to innovate, hopefully you will see that if you have a look at what products we have to offer.We also understand that any retailer (especially online) stands and falls by the quality of its customer service. Therefore we aim to meet and where possible, exceed your expectations!

We have decided that where we can we would like to help preserve the environment for all the fish in our rivers. We have teamed up with various conservation charities, and now ship all of our flies in fully recyclable packaging.“

Want To Choose Your Early Season Nymphs By Weight?

We know it's a bit geeky, but we've actually weighed all of our nymphs and put them into three different weight classifications:

Light Weight: between 0.00g and 0.19g - for slower flows and shallower water
Medium Weight: between 0.20g and 0.39g - for regular flows
Heavy Weight: above 0.40g+ - for high and faster water

Light Weight Nymphs

For when you need your nymph to sink slowly or the flow is minimal. Our Lightweight nymphs all weigh between 0.00g and 0.19g

View Our Lightweight Nymphs

Medium Weight Nymphs

Use this weight of nymph on a regular flowing river, these are ideal for Grayling. Our Mediumweight nymphs all weigh between 0.20g and 0.39g

View Our Mediumweight Nymphs

Heavy Weight Nymphs

When the river is carrying that little bit more water and you need to go deep, fast. Our Heavyweight nymphs all weigh above 0.40g.
