For those of you who don't know it we have a new fly shop in RI. It is called Rivers & Riptides and is located in Coventry on RT 3 just off Rt 95 exit 6. This is a legitimate fly shop not a tackle store or mass merchandiser who devotes 10 feet to fly fishing. We have lost many fly shops in Southern New England over the past few years. Let's all get behind these guys and help make them a success. They cater to both fresh and salt water and have a growing inventory. They provide the kind of personal service that you expect in a traditional fly shop. We fly fishers need a place to congregate, purchase supplies and lie (exaggerate) to each other! Be sure to stop in and give Dave, Steve and John your support. We don't want to loose another shop!

You bet. I already support one near my house in MA. (Sure we all know the one I'm talking about)
But I still go To RI frequently. I think I heard about this new place. Is this run by the gentlmen that started the Blackstone fly CO. ?

Yes, it is. Dave also is owner of Blackstone Fly Co. Great guy that goes the extra mile for you.
