Introduction
Welcome to "Fugl & Fjer Fluebinding"s homepage. My name is Jens Christian Pilgaard, and with my wife Helle I have been running our flytying shop since March 1993. The reason why we started selling feathers was that it seemed almost impossible to get hold of decent materials when I started tying flies myself many years ago.
Now we can offer our customers the highest quality at the lowest price on the market, as we manufacture a great deal of our goods ourselves.This especially applies for furs and feathers.
For us it is a natural thing to be conscientious when it comes to dealing with items from endangered species. This means that you, in our pricelist, are able to see which species requires a permit ( either cites-certificate or registration) whenever bought or sold. Unfortunately this is a highly neglected problem within our wonderful hobby, but we are of the opinion that the customers are entitled to a professional guidance, so that they don't get " tricked " into buying illegal feathers etc. .
Among other birds we breed our own Junglecocks to be able to sell these feathers leagally. This also mean that we only sell moulting feathers from these birds.
If you want advise or help regarding flytying, I am at your disposal.
Since 1996 I have been particepating in Mustad Scandinavian Open flytying contest, in
which I have had the pleasure of receiving a number of medals and diplomas.
1996 Fully dressed salmon open bronze medal
1997 Nymph bronze medal
Superrealistic silver medal
Open class - silver medal
1998 Fully dressed salmon - open gold medal
Streamer bronze medal
I have also had the pleasure of receiving diplomas in the following categories : fully dressed salmon, hairwinged salmon, dryfly, open category, wetflies, streamer and superrealistic flies.
I offer a range of seminars and workshops on subjects such as : Flytying, Knives and Forging knives.
As something new we can offer our customers the opportunity of participating in our Wilderness-seminar in flyfishing and our Mini Wilderness fishing tours in Norway from spring 1999. We will be camping in a big Lapplander tent called a "Lavvu" and of cause we will be flyfishing besides learning how to get along in- and use the nature correctly.
We look forward to welcome you as a customer at " Fugl & Fjer Fluebinding " and to offer you our services and help.
