It was Mike Bokan’s love of fly fishing and tying that led him to open The Fly Shack 15 years ago. What started as a small, online business selling flies out of his house has grown into a 1700 sq. ft. storefront carrying today’s top brands as well as Fly Shack’s own product line which is geared towards the budget conscious angler. In addition to the storefront, their facility also features an upstairs gymnasium where rods can be cast and ample warehousing space for fulfillment of internet and catalog orders.
