There is a place out of Bryson City NC that employees the handicapped to tie flies and have a great price, but their name is escaping me. They have a really good selection.

That really sounds like a win-win.  I hope somebody can come up with a name.

It's hard to refute the photographic evidence above of you picking a fly out of the bin! Looks like a San Juan Worm to me........

Flytire -

Not familiar with Benton (mostly use BlueFly CafĂ©), but it looks like they tie their own up in Maine.  What's the quality like compared to some of the others?

Thanks.

I just purchased about $40 worth of flies from Blue Sky Cafe', as recommended here.  Quality looking flies, and great pricing.  They forgot two pink SJ's, so I called them.  Three days later the two missing flies were in my mailbox!
My buddy is just getting started fly fishing again this year, so I bought him a lanyard, camelbak, and about 30 flies for Christmas.

I got to admit I have neve bought any flies form Blue Sky Cafe. Been to their website a couple of times. But a felllow member of our club does some repping for them. He is a straight shooter and as honest as he can be. He swears by them.

Next time I am in the market that is where I am headed.

I buy most of my generic type flies there.  Good quality and the customer service is always great.  I have had the same service as you did when they forget things.  I have no vested interest in recommending them, but I tell everyone about the company.

This site has flies that are solid, and @ .54c it is hard to beat them.  They hold up fairly well but at this price you can catch 20 fish and tie on a new one and not feel bad.  They also have some good deal on name brand fly fishing gear as well.
Heaven is a day fishing!

I just looked at their site and they have a deal going on now where you buy a new rod from them you get 10 dozen free flies.  You even get to pick out what flies you want and what sizes.
