Your hometown fly shop is one of the best places to look for those items on the Christmas list. WV offers some great shops to check out Anglers Xstream in Parkersburg, Serenity Now Outfitters in Lewisburg, Elk Springs located near Monterville, Evergreen in Clarksburg, and McFly Outdoors with a few locations including Flatwoods. There is also a few great shops that border us South River Fly Shop in Waynesboro - VA, Mossy Creek Fly Shop in Harrisonburg - VA, and Mad River Outfitters in Columbus - OH. Fly shops provide great and personal service from people that truly understand these products. They understand the local area as well as hatches and can suggest the flies or gear needed for area streams. They all offer a great selection of rods, reels, waders, and tying gear. If gear is not your answer you can always get a guide trip from one of them for anything from trout to bass to musky. Another great guide is Harold Harsh from Spring Creek Outfitters that always shows a great time on the water.
If you don't want to pick something out gift cards are always a favorite item for all. You can get a gift card from one of the fly shops mentioned above or even manufactures offer one. A few other places that offer a great idea would be Harman's Log Cabins offer great packages to stay on the South Branch as does Elk Springs on the Elk. They both offer top notch accommodations with good fishing just out the front door. Another place that offers gift cards to stay is one of the many WV State Parks a couple of the best Kumbrabow and Watoga. For the fisherman looking to replicate that trophy Mount'n Critters Taxidermy would offer gift cards for a one of a kind reproduction!
