Hi Bill, I dont understand why a fly shop would want a online store.
The reason consumers buy online is to save money, like at places where
you can get $.60 flys or brass or tungsten bead at half of what you
pay at a shop.


Uh, no. I shop online for convenience, not to save money, and because
our local fly shops suck. As a matter of fact, it usually costs *more*
to shop online once you figure in the shipping. Almost everything
related to fly fishing I've purchased in the last several years has been
online. The merchants I've dealt with have been great and I've never had
a problem returning goods I don't like once received.
