Tools for Fly Fishing

We appreciate fly fishing as a sum-of-its-parts pastime, so it’s difficult to say which fly-fishing tool is the most important, since they all work together for a successful experience. If you’re looking for just the necessities, check out our loaded Orvis fly-fishing lanyard, which includes all the most important fly-fishing tools in one convenient carrying style.

Stock your fly-fishing pack or bag with nippers, floatant, a hemostat, loaded fly box, indicators, split shot, a knot-tying tool, and leaders and tippet. Depending on how long you’re fishing and your level of experience, you’ll also need to pack specialized tools like line cleaner, a rod clip, and a leader straightener.

Essential tools for fly fishing include forceps, nippers, flotant, tippet bar, extra tippet, pliers, and flotant.
