Fat Ruby’s Fly House is a small business, in a small town, with a very big vision: to craft the highest quality flies you will ever cast. We define quality in the innovation designs, durable construction, and “fish-fooling” ability of our flies. We always welcome new customers, but know it is our many returning friends that testify to the value of our products. Anglers have many options for purchasing flies; return business is our measure of getting it right!

Thank you for visiting our website. We hope you enjoy browsing the Fly Gallery; you can view a sample of our own unique trout fly patterns along with some time-honored classics. You will also find several fly recipes and tying notes along the margin of the pages, we know many of you will want to try your hand with some of our new emerger designs.

Contact us if you want to add Fat Ruby’s patterns to your fly box, schedule group or individual tying lessons, learn to cast a fly line, or are looking for fly fishing opportunities in the northern Black Hills. Fat Ruby’s Flies are available for purchase through the Fly Market at J. Stockard Fly Fishing and The Orvis Company fly collection. Please visit our partners to shop for Fat Ruby’s flies and many other fine fly fishing products.
