Welcome to Fishing Sales Shop’s FAQ section! Here we’ve compiled answers to common questions about our premium fly fishing gear, global shipping, and angler-focused services.

About Our Products
What types of fly fishing products do you specialize in?
We specialize in comprehensive fly fishing equipment including:
- Fly rods and reels from premium manufacturers
- Specialized fly tying materials (dubbing, chenilles, flash materials)
- Carp-specific flies and gear for European-style fishing
- Professional tying tools and vises
- Durable chest packs and sling packs for gear organization
- Limited-edition flies and custom tying materials
Do you offer custom or hand-tied flies?
Yes! Our workshop produces limited quantities of hand-tied specialty flies, particularly our renowned carp patterns. These are made in small batches to ensure quality. Note that custom flies may be final sale due to their handmade nature – we want to ensure they meet our standards when they reach your fly box.
How do I choose the right rod for my fishing needs?
Our rods are categorized by:
- Target species (trout, carp, bass)
- Water conditions (small streams, large rivers, stillwaters)
- Casting style and line weights
Ordering & Account Questions
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, JCB) and PayPal for secure global transactions. All payments are processed through encrypted systems for your security.
Can I modify or cancel my order after placement?
Due to our fast 1-2 day processing time, order modifications must be requested immediately by emailing [email protected]. Once your order enters processing (usually within 4 hours during business days), changes cannot be guaranteed.
Do you offer discounts for bulk orders?
While we maintain competitive pricing on all items, orders over $50 automatically qualify for free shipping. For very large orders (especially fly tying materials), contact us directly for possible additional bulk pricing.
Pro Tip: Combine orders with fishing partners to reach the $50 free shipping threshold while splitting material costs.
Shipping & Delivery
Where do you ship and what are the delivery times?
We ship globally (excluding some remote areas and parts of Asia) via two services:
- Standard Expedition Shipping ($12.95): 10-15 day delivery via DHL/FedEx with full tracking – ideal for time-sensitive gear
- Free Current Shipping (orders >$50): 15-25 day delivery via EMS – perfect for bulk materials
How are fishing rods packaged for safe shipping?
We use rigid rod tubes with protective end caps for all rod shipments. Multi-piece rods are secured within the tube with foam spacers. Our moisture-resistant packaging ensures materials arrive in perfect condition, even to humid climates.
Do you handle customs and import paperwork?
Yes, we complete all necessary international documentation seamlessly. However, customers are responsible for any applicable duties or taxes in their country. Contact your local customs office for specific import regulations.
Returns & Warranty
What is your return policy?
We offer a 15-day return policy from delivery date:
- Items must be unused and in original packaging
- Rods/reels require original protective tubes/cases
- Contact [email protected] for return authorization
What if my gear arrives damaged?
While rare due to our specialized packaging, if damage occurs:
- Keep all original packaging and documentation
- Take photos of the damage
- Email us within 48 hours of delivery at [email protected]
Do you offer product warranties?
Manufacturer warranties apply to rods and reels. Most other products are covered by our 15-day satisfaction guarantee. For warranty claims, we’ll connect you directly with the manufacturer’s service department for fastest resolution.
