Helo Michal I would like to thank you on the quality of service not to mention quality of the materials the dubbing box is first class the coq de leon is grade 1 and all at a good price. hope to deal with you. again. James

Michal, My name is Geir and i like to thank you for good service when i have order flies and nymphs from you. I am from Norway and i love fishing for big seatrout and also salmon with nymphs. That requires strong hooks and good quality of the nymphs. And that is exactly what i got from you. And when i ask for something you always says “no problem” . I like that. Looking forward to buy more nymphs and flies with you later. Best regards Geir Harald Fredriksen

I’m Dani Martin from Spain. In live4flyfishing I have found, not only a great flies tyer if not a company that fits 100% with my way of understanding of flyfishing. A great service that I recommend to everybody.

Flies for a fishermen are what bullets are for hunters, a very practical necessity. As much as I do appreciate and marvel at the pieces of art that some fly dressers create on a vise, my fishing demands for downright practical flies for easy, tough… well any type of conditions really. I am a great admirer and follower of many fly dressers; I just love their approach of redefining old pattern, creating some entirely new ones or simply tweaking them to new levels. It’s inspiring to see how many great minds are caught up in the simple question of arranging fur and feathers around a hook. Michał Zapał’s pattern and materials are amongst my favorites for many various reasons. Fish flies that are easy to retie, neatly proportioned pattern that are appealing to both anglers and fish… and I could go on. His page is a great source of inspiration and I cannot wait to receive my packages with materials to retie his flies. He’s quick, very kind, reliable and most of all always available for a chat and some tips. I have fished countless variations of the peeping caddis, his peeping worm version had scored most of my big fish lately and has become a never-to-leave-the-house-withoutit pattern. Thank you, Michal, for the great service!

I just want to thank Michal for tying me up some flies that I used yesterday with deadly effect. It was the second day of a two day fishing adventure in the Apple Valley of California. The first day was really tough so then I said, I’m throwing Michals flies. These fish have never seen these patterns. Maybe I’ll get bit. Boy did I get bit. I caught my personal best Rainbow Trout of 11 pounds 10 ounces in Kilograms that’s roughly 5.44 kilograms. Thank you Michal for you wonderful fish candies. By the way I had just bought a new sage 3 wt 9 ft two piece XP. It was an advneture landing a fish that big on a three weight from the float tube.

LOOK WHAT SANTA SENT ME. I know i’m showing off here but whats not to show off about. couple weeks ago i ordered these 2 FINE fly boxes from Michał Zapał. and i MUST say they r amazing. the flys r second to none and the craftsmanship on these boxes he made r UNREAL. WAY WAY more then i ever expected. he is a man of his word and super fast shipping. AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH BROTHER AS THESE WILL BE DISPLAYED IN MY FISHING LODGE FOR ALL TO SEE.

I received my new cap today and am proud to promote this man’s merchandise. Check his website out and see his work for your self. Great fly tier and a fine man to deal with! Jerry

Michal, Can’t thank you enough for the flies, outstanding quality, and delivered in no time. It is good to find someone who is professional in both time scale and ability. You clearly take pride in what you do. Very happy, cheers.

I received my box of wet flies on Wednesday and couldn’t wait to hit the water. The 12 pound carp was caught on my second cast with a chartreuse nymph that came in the box.

Got my flies michal thanks a million they are stunning. Dave from Scotland

Hi Michal, thought id send through a photo of one of the fish caught on your flies recently here in New Zealand. they have been really effective and are really well tied, looking forward to getting some more fish on them!

When I opened my envelope today, only the word which I have to say is POPICI ! Top class of tying ! That’s for sure .., high recommend Michal # Ireland

Last winter I kept seeing these amazing and innovative fly patterns on Facebook and was instantly intrigued, I didn’t have the time to tie some patterns and decided to try contacting Michal, After receiving the flies I was blown away by the skill and detail put into each fly!! Since then I have not only continued to buy flies but we have formed a great friendship and business relationship and I now carry Michals hand blended dubbing and have started to sell his flies at my shop (www.competitiveangler.com) I’m proud to call Michal Zapal one of the best fly Tyers in the world and a close friend !

He has come up with some awesome patterns that I find new, refreshing, and down right cool. Check him out. Thanks.

Had Michał Zapał, tie some flies for me since I simply dont have time to do it myself at the moment.
I needed them for a week of shooting 3 episodes to a Norwegian TV-show, so I was a bit nervous about the quality since I normaly fish with my own flies.
There was no need to worry at all. The patterns was just perfect for the vary autumn trouts in Slovenia and we caught plenty of fish on both nymphs and dries from Michal.
Keep up the great work!

The nymphs have been consistently successful on the Test, the Lambourn, the Frome and the Anton. Michal has been fantastically helpful in getting orders to me in time for fishing trips and his knowledge and advice helped loads in my choice from his extensive catalogue of patterns.
