Details

Rich Strolis started as a guide on the ever-popular Farmington and Housatonic Rivers in Connecticut. He later transitioned his work to commercial tying, speaking engagements, and teaching many facets of both fly fishing and fly tying across the Northeast and Eastern seaboard. His fly patterns, although based out of the Northeast, have a strong following and relevance across the globe and have been tied and fished by many as a result of his library of online videos. He is a signature fly designer for the Montana Fly Company, which currently produces over thirty of his patterns. His patterns have appeared in several national magazines and books, including Flyfisherman, Eastern Fly Fishing, and many others. Rich is a very well-rounded trout fisherman, but his passion lies in chasing trophy trout and various other apex predators on streamers. He lives in Simsbury, Connecticut, with his wife, Megan, and two daughters, Tessa and Nora.
 
His highly anticipated first book, Catching Shadows: Tying Flies For The Toughest Fish and Strategies for Fishing Them, from Stackpole Books on January 1, 2016!  A full-time commercial custom fly tier in New England, catering to the angler who is looking for quality tied flies for whatever they chase.
