Anyone have any experience with dry flies from icky fly works, good bad or otherwise. My supply of dry flie hackle is limited to a picked over metz grizzly and nobody has any in stock.

They are a sponsor of the forum and I have heard nothing but good things about them. Quick shipping, really good prices, and some very well tied flies. I will be ordering some from them over the winter I am sure.

Have ordered several flies from them and they seem to be good quality and shipping is real quick. Price is great and will continue to only order from them.

Unfortunately, I'm not a mutant (like Ken), so I can only give 2 thumbs up. Have ordered from them a few times, and have always been quite happy with both products and service.

Great guy and quality flies. Sent him 160 bucks and had more then a few of his packs delivered to my home within just a few days. You won't be disappointed.

I've bought quite a few dozen from them over the last two years and they are decent quality. I find that it helps to put a drop of head cement on them to improve the durability. Definitely my first place I go to for flies.

Great price and prompt delivery. Ordered some last week and they were all really nice. Highly recommended.

no one has mentioned bonus flys. my orders have always including a few extras to try. a good gesture that shows icky appreciates my business.

I ordered from Icky a few times before I learned to tie and had absolutely no problems. It was Icky that introduced me to one of the best winter Bow River flies, that epoxy bloodworm they sell, responsible for numerous hookups. And like Dace mentioned, the bonus flies are a nice touch.

I've ordered from them too and the flies always arrive quickly and are of great quality. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again.

It took a while for my flies to make it to Fort McMurray but they are here and I am impressed. I also had forgotten how small number 14 and 16 flies were...lol. I'll let you know if I catch anything with them.
