Our Mission
We had only one thing in mind when we started Colton Fly Company.
You.
It has now been over 20 years since we began building fly fishing equipment! Our mission at that time was to create the finest fly fishing products on the planet and deliver them directly to our customers at an affordable price. That mission holds as true today as it did at the start. All of our equipment is designed and built with the harsh saltwater environment in mind. This allows our customers the peace of mind to simply concentrate on making memories and not worrying about salt, sand, and all the rigors of chasing fish in the salt.
Factory Direct
Colton Fly Company cuts out unnecessary margins, markups, and dealers to bring our vision directly to you. Buy with confidence. If you receive one of our products and it does not exceed your expectations, return it for a full refund. No questions asked.
Times have changed. Gas prices are over $3.00 per gallon in most places. The cost of driving to a respectable fly shop is high for the majority of anglers. I know the closest decent shop to me is about an hour and a half drive each way. A huge number of anglers have turned to the internet because they get better deals, more choices, and shipping is usually far less than driving to your nearest shop.
Fly anglers have been held hostage by the high prices of quality equipment for a long time. You have had no choice in the past but to pay the high premium if you wanted a decent rod or reel. $700 for a carbon fiber fly rod! That's nuts. $700 for single action aluminum fly reel! That's nuts. You don't see those prices in the spinning and conventional fishing market.
When you buy a Colton product you are paying what a retailer would pay (Wholesale). We have all been trained to think that if we pay $200 for fly rod then it will perform like a $200 fly rod. Right? This is not the case with Colton's fly fishing gear. When you pay $200 for a Colton product you are getting a product that
you would have paid over $350 for through a retailer! You just saved $150.
One problem with this concept right? Where can you try a Colton fly rod? Where can you look at a Colton fly reel? We are confident that you will be more than satisfied with our fly fishing gear products. So, if you are interested in one of our products then buy it. If for any reason you do not like the product you can return it for a full refund including the freight charges.
