A good way to explain the Skinny Dipper would be comparing a Bucktail Deceiver to a Bulkhead Deceiver, or my Jerk Jr. to my Fuzz Jr. In both cases one fly appears more sleek, slender, and can be tied compressed more 2D as is common for species such as Shiners. Whereas the others sport a full head profile and often more tubular bodies common for Mullet, Suckers, and Sculpin. The Skinny-Dipper came about as the application of these two ideas. The Rich Strolis Double Brush technique split between hooks for proper taper, while providing a Counterpart to the High and Tight profile of the Super Jerk. To finish it off, I went to the weightless Deer Hair Muddler Head which provided not only the Silhouette Counterpart that I needed but an Action Counterpart as well.
When Canada Post lost my package, the guys at Drift Outfitters honored the sale and sent me a new order the next day. It's nice to deal with a company that has great customer service.
Drift is my go to spot for all my fly fishing needs. Super friendly and helpful staff that always steer you in the right direction. Super fast shipping and great prices too.
Best fly shop around! Great group of people and they have the best selection of gear! All the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable and they do tons of awesome stuff for the community. This shop is a great resource for all anglers in southern Ontario. 10/10 will shop again
Always get good service from the guys at the shop especially Chris…he is a pro….inventory is the best I have seen I. Any speciality fly shop which is rare in a single fly shop…support Canadian business /highly recommend
Dope fly shop, crazy selection of flies including big topwater bass flies of all sorts, and big pike flies which are pretty hard to find in person. Chill staff, loads of inventory. I make a point to stop here every time I'm in Toronto!
This is the best fly fishing store I have frequented in my 30 year fly fishing experience. The owner Rob, store manager Chris and the rest of the team are very knowledgeable about products and local fly fishing locations. They will guide you towards best products for your needs, and will not try to upsell if a lower priced option is better for you...
If you are in the GTA Drift is the only fly shop you need. They have an insane amount of quality tying products, packs, waders, boots, rods and reels. They also have the best staff w/ a staggering knowledge base.
