I have used Madison river also.
To go along with what Glen said I have not used Marriott's but have used The Fly shop out there. Grat service and can get the stuff faster than F-C for sure.
Tru dat Pete,
But there is nothing like picking out your own material. Bucktail is the first thing that comes to mind. I will just miss that shop. We go way back. I do mail order though.
Went by plateau fly shop a little while ago. It's s been ravaged 😃. Found some stuff , spent a hundred bucks. That deal started Wednesday like in two days ago. Guy checking out said it was packed. I believe it. Sad to see it go. Guy said what does not sell will be thrown away. I did take two of my pictures off the wall. I didn't want to be thrown into the trash 🤣.
Does not look like it. We have used that shop for years. Changed hands many times. No one seems to make it work. Really a bummer. Each of our second sets of Simms waders were bought there with a good deal. Still dropped many bucks over all those years.
This ought to be a good class. Doug and I go way back. He was one of my earlier participants at Reel Recovery. Still get to see him once and awhile tying at the Tri Lakes Flyfishing Expo. Then Mike and doing his deer hair work awesome!
