Elevate your fly-fishing game, become a member
For anglers serious about building their knowledge, gearing up for the season and discovering travel opportunities, the Flylab membership was created to be an indispensable value and resource.
Fish and learn more. Spend less.
Simple. You’re looking to expand and deepen your fly-fishing game, and we can help you get there. We created our member plan to be simple and cost effective. The membership provides access to our exclusive “member deals,” full content archive and direct access to the team for Q&A sessions, where we’ll cover gear, skills, destinations etc.
Absolutely. Right now, we’re running a 7-day free trial, so you can check out our paid content, member community and partner deals.
We did a bunch of market research and found that the average annual spend for U.S. fly fishermen was ~$1,200. And because our average annual discount is ~23%, we felt like $120 was a bargain for an annual subscription, when you balanced that against the savings from our partner discount program you can access as a member. If you’re an angler in the market for new gear, trips or travel, a Flylab membership should pay for itself in a few purchases. We’ll also be providing members exclusive, paywalled content and direct access to the team for Q&A sessions, where we’ll cover gear, skills, destinations etc.
Founding members have access to our private community, full library of content and exclusive Q&A sessions, a signed copy of Deeter’s The Little Red Book of Fly Fishing, a limited edition print from photographer Tim Romano, free access to Flylab events and exclusive “founding-member” travel opportunities. Reach out, or check out our founding member info, to learn more. If you want to become a founding member, get started here.
