Fly Shop Kudos

Trying to get in an on topic post from time to time, I'll post some praise
for a recent fly shop experience.

I needed a little bit of new material for my swap flies (the Murray's
Strymph). For the sake of good karma, I tried to order the stuff from Harry
Murray's shop, via their website. Unfortunately, I couldn't find exactly
waht I wanted on their site, so I called the shop personally and spoke
directly to Harry. Harry gave me the info I needed & put his order person
on the line.

I chatted with the nice woman on the other end & placed the order. She said
she'd probably get it out that afternoon. The next morning (yesterday),
less than 24 hours later, the box arrives at my gate. Damned amazing.
Kudos to Murray's Fly Shop.

I have to say their service is amazing. Each time I have delt with them,
they have been excellent. I have only ordered a couple of times from them
but each time was a pleasure. The young ladies in the shop (pharmacy) at
first glance, do not look like they would know anything about fly fishing.
They are not only knowledgable, but give excellent directions and
recommendations for spots to fish locally. The only shop I have ever been
in with better service belongs to Wally. Harry is good but he never took me
fishing!

they are tremendously enjoyable consumed in that fashion. ;-)

aww c'mon, let's be honest here tom, i did give a hearty
gratuitous belch.

thanks for the words guys..... one of the problems i'm running
into as a shop owner is satisfying the promises i've made. it's
real cool and nice to say... "let's go fishin' sometime" to the
customers (and now friends) that come in and support the shop.
unfortunately it is hard to make the time to live up to the
promises made to everyone.... i'll do my damndest to do so, but
it's gonna take some time. i guess a guy could have worse problems.

wally
come on by, i'll take ya fishin' ;-)

What ya need to do is put a poster on the front of the shop stating; to
all i promised to take fishing meet here on a certain time and date and we will
go off to that famous honey hole i told ya about that way ya only need to take
off a day or two....and you have some happy customers and a mini-glave at the
same time..............

Funny. Wally always brought the beer when I went along. He supplied all
the beer I could drink, brought sandwiches for a picnic lunch (he even
carried them until lunchtime), and he bought me a fine steak dinner in the
evening! He supplied the flys and even offered to carry my rod if I got
tired.
SO, what is it about you Tom?? :-D
