60%+ of Fly Fishing Artificial Flies come from Kenya

60%+ of Fly-Fishing Artificial Flies comes from Kenya No one really knows why, but over 60% of artificial flies tied to little fish-hooks for fly fishing comes from Kenya. There are thousands of freelance tyers that do not register with the tax authorities in Kenya so the number of people working in the fly fishing gear industry is unknown. It started in the 1930s when Kenya was a colony of England. A young British man broke his back playing rugby in England and was sent to Kenya to recuperate where he found joy in tying flies. As his health improved in Kenya, his hobby turned into a business. The scope of workshops in Kenya for tying flies runs from sheds where freelance tyers operate to warehouses where hundreds of employees work at long tables to manufacture gear for markets as far way as South America, Europe, and the Australia. There is no mechanized method to replace the the process of wrapping silk and cotton around flies made of feather, tinsel, and fur to simulate a buzzing insect that will fool trout into biting. Most workers in Kenya get paid by the fly. These workers make around $150 a month. Competition has appeared across south east Asia like in the Philippines, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka where the average wage is about $300 a month. Based purely on labor costs, Kenya should stay competitive in the world market. If Kenya can continue to be reliable and demonstrate good workmanship, the country will dominate the fly fishing industry for many years to come.
