Andy Kurkulis and Jon Uhlenhop founded Chicago Fly Fishing Outfitters in March of 2001, with a simple premise: Everything fly fishing delivered with exceptional service, expertise and humility. We have outgrown 2 storefronts over the past years, and in 2008 moved into our present 3600 square foot home at 1279 N Clybourn Ave –smack dab in the Old Town/Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago. Located just 5-8 minutes north of downtown, we invite you to visit us, and see for yourself. Chicago Fly Fishing Outfitters's staff has gained invaluable experience over the past 10 years traveling all over the world in search of fly fishing’s finest. En route, we have expanded our talented staff, and grown to be a respected source for all thing fly fishing for one of the most diverse fly fishing communities in the world: the globetrotting anglers that call Chicago home, and the world wide community that visits our incredible city. (Now, with our on-line growth, are providing the same service to our new clients on all four corners of the globe.)
