Veniard Fly Tying

Veniard Fly Tying has been partners with troutcatchers since 2002 listing the entire Veniard catalogue on the website. Having weekly, sometimes twice weekly deliveries troutcatchers always hold good Veniard stock, and if we do go out of stock can be replenished very quickly.

Veniard, since 1923 have been supplying top quality fly tying material and fly tying tools s to the world when Mr Ernest and Frank Veniard started collecting feathers from London poultry markets for hat mounts and brooches.This in turn led to limited supplies for fly tyers. By the mid 1930’s the Veniard brothers produced their first Fly Tying Catalogue. By the start of WWII the company already had a reputation for supplying top quality fly tying materials.

The late 40’s saw a big rise in the leisure industry this coupled with public access to trout fishing led to a Fly Tying boom period for Veniard.This lead to a shortage of home grown materials and forced the Veniard to look overseas for supplies.

The 50’s 60’s saw Veniard continue to grow with weekly visits to the Fly tying factories of the midlands the norm.

There have been major changes since then at Veniard with the arrival of synthetics, genetic hackles and specially designed tools. But through all this Veniard have, and still remain one of the top fly tying suppliers in the world.
