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.“

    10,000+ 5 Star Reviews

    We take real pride in our customer service. With the demise of fly shops around the country, we try to make the buying experience as friendly (and helpful) as possible.

    We must be doing something right, as we're now the most reviewed fly shop in Europe, if not the world!

    The Joy of Fishing

    Moments That Matter

    The real magic of fishing isn’t the fly — it’s the moment that follows. The pause, the drift, the sudden tightening of the line and the surge of life on the other end.

Spring Fly Patterns

These are the fly patterns which should be working on your local water now!

I can't tell you where these came from - but I can show you what they look like!

Mar 17, 2026

Right, so this is a bit of an unusual one. A few months ago, I got talking to a contact who has, shall we say, interesting connections in the European competition fishing world.
