KN Baits & Flies is an EU-based online fly tying shop offering materials, tools, fly hooks and accessories for a wide range of fly patterns. The selection is designed for beginners setting up their first tying bench as well as experienced fly tiers looking for specific materials for classic and modern patterns.
The shop offers materials for tying nymphs, dry flies, emergers, wet flies, streamers, pike flies, stillwater flies, salmon flies and saltwater patterns. The range includes feathers, dubbing, fur, zonker strips, tying threads, tinsel, wire, chenille, flash, synthetic fibres, fly hooks, tungsten beads and UV resins.
Products are organised by material type and intended use, making it easier to choose the right option for a particular pattern, hook size or tying technique. Explore the full range of fly tying materials for classic and modern fly patterns.
A well-equipped tying bench starts with a stable fly tying vice and tools that provide good control over thread and materials. The range includes vices, bobbins, scissors, hackle pliers, whip finishers, dubbing twisters, bodkins, threaders, hair stackers and other accessories used during everyday tying.
Beginners can select the essential tools needed to start tying, while experienced fly tiers can choose equipment for small nymphs and dry flies or large pike and predator streamers. Product descriptions focus not only on construction and specifications, but also on the practical use of each tool at the tying bench.
The shop also carries fly hooks for different pattern types and tungsten beads in a range of sizes, colours and designs. This makes it easier to match the hook and weight to the intended fly, water depth and presentation.
I have been tying flies since 1998 and have worked in the fishing industry for over 20 years. Many of the materials and tools available in the shop are also used in our own workshop. This practical experience helps us evaluate feather and fur quality, the movement of synthetic fibres in the water, thread strength, bead and hook compatibility, and the comfort and precision offered by individual tools.
We also develop our own KN Fly products with the practical needs of fly tiers in mind. If you are unsure which material, hook, bead size or tool will suit a particular pattern, contact us for practical advice. You can also find fly tying guides and material information on our blog and YouTube channel.
Orders are shipped from Poland to customers across Europe and to selected destinations outside Europe. Clear product information and practical support help international customers compare material types, hook models, bead sizes and specialist tools before ordering.
The main fly tying range is complemented by ready-tied flies produced in our workshop. The selection includes nymphs, dry flies, wet flies, streamers, pike flies, stillwater flies, saltwater patterns and salmon flies. Individual categories help anglers choose patterns for different fish species, waters and fishing methods.
A smaller part of the range includes selected spinning lures made in our workshop, including micro jigs, jigs and hand-tied feather jigs for zander. Fly tying materials, tools, hooks, accessories and ready-tied flies remain the main focus of KN Baits & Flies.
