Fly Fishing

Fly South – Nashville, TN

FS - Store Front

Fly South is the place I usually end up at on a Saturday morning if conditions aren’t great for fishing or I just don’t have time for quick trip to the Caney Fork River. But then again, a quick trip to the Caney is about five or six hour fishing excursion.

Fly South is another one of the fly shops in town and has a wide variety of fly fishing and fly tying materials. Fly fishing is Fly South’s only sport and they all excel at it. Fly South carries Sage, Scott, G. Loomis, St. Croix, Abel, Lamson, Tibor, Ross, Hardy, and Bauer. As a fly tier, I am a huge fan of their fly tying room with all of the feathers, fur, hair, hooks, and hackles. If I am on the search for a material for a new pattern, they usually have it, and if the don’t they are quick with a response on another material that might substitute. They also have a wide variety of books and movies on fly fishing.

Fly South offers classes from entomology and knot tying to fly tying for bass, trout and salt water species of fish. They also offer a weekend fly fishing school and a ladies only fly fishing class.

Fly South is located at 1514 Demonbreun Street, Nashville, TN. Their phone number is (615) 251-6199. Jim Mauries (Owner), Steve Nix, or Jim Monroe can answer almost any question you have about fly fishing and the local waters. Jim Mauries and Steve Nix are the shops in-house guides, so if you are interested in a guided trip on one of Tennessee’s best tailwater trout fisheries, give them a call.

    If so, can you provide the details.

  5. do you teach fly fishing schools for bass and bream. I don`t like trout and it looks like the most popular for fly fishing.

  7. Hey Jim my Dr, Dr. Robert Sewell told me you had a fly shop. I had no idea! I'm planing to make a trek down there this Spring and stock up. Best Wishes, Carbaugh Mann

  8. I figure that nearly anyone can learn to tie a fly and anyone can catch a trout on it. However, character is that special something learned not near as easily. Character is that piece of the human condition that sets one apart from all the rest. I have been hanging around fly shops now for thirty years and before that it was bait shops. In all that time I have never witnessed as great a character as exhibited by Jim and Steve here in Fly South. They have always gone above and beyond the pale in their attempts to help not only me but my son and my disabled wife. I have often said that when my spirit needs a boost, I drop by the shop to get inspiration and I always have found it there. A question never remains unanswered. Namaste to those two guys.-----ken

  9. HI. I was wondering when your fly fishing classes are? My husband and I would love to attend. Also, do you know of any programs near Mount Juliet? Thanks for your time.
