TiedTrueFlies is an online marketplace connecting anglers with independent fly tyers who sell their handmade flies directly to customers. The platform features a range of patterns for different fishing needs, including dry flies and other surface patterns, nymphs for sub-surface fishing, streamers for larger waters and fish, and saltwater flies for flats and estuaries. Shoppers can browse featured and newly listed flies, with individual listings showing details such as pattern, price, and available sizes.

Trust and secure transactions are central to the service. TiedTrueFlies holds each customer’s payment in escrow until the order is delivered and confirmed. Tyers ship using tracked labels, and sellers receive payment after delivery is confirmed. If there is a problem, buyers can contact the platform within three days of delivery so the issue can be addressed before payout. The marketplace charges tyers a fee of 5% plus 30 cents per order when funds are released, with the fee shown on the receipt.
