About Murray’s Fly Shop
At Murray’s Fly Shop, we’re more than just a fly fishing store—we’re a community built around a shared passion for the water, the outdoors, and the art of fly fishing. Since 1962, we’ve helped anglers of all skill levels experience the excitement of a perfect cast, a natural drift, and the unforgettable strike of a rising fish.
From the trout streams of the Shenandoah Valley to smallmouth bass rivers and beyond, we provide premium fly fishing gear, trusted advice, and hands-on instruction to help you fish with confidence. Whether you’re just getting started or planning a bucket-list trip, Murray’s Fly Shop is your reliable partner every step of the way.
Our Story
Founded in May 1962 by Harry Murray in the heart of Edinburg, Murray’s Fly Shop was born out of a deep passion for fly fishing—and a need for better access to quality gear and knowledge.
What started as a small local shop has grown into a destination for anglers from across the country. Over the decades, our commitment has remained the same: share what works, teach what matters, and help others enjoy the sport we love.
Generations later, that same enthusiasm continues to guide everything we do. Along the way, we’ve built lasting friendships and a loyal community of anglers who return year after year.
Learn, Fish, and Explore
Take your fly fishing skills to the next level with our expert-led schools, workshops, and guided trips. We offer hands-on instruction throughout the year, designed to help you better understand and enjoy fly fishing at every level.
