About

About Zen Outfitters.

Zen Outfitters is a Boise, Idaho-based company born from a passion for the timeless art of fly fishing and a deep reverence for nature. We believe that fly fishing is more than just a sport; it’s a journey of self-discovery, a connection with the natural world, and a path to finding tranquility amidst the currents of life.

Our handcrafted furled leaders, tenkara lines, and silk fly lines are a testament to this philosophy. Each product is meticulously crafted using time-honored techniques and premium materials, resulting in high-quality gear that enhances your fishing experience and deepens your connection to the water.

The Zen of Fly Fishing

Just as the river flows with grace and adaptability, so too should the fly fisher. We believe in embracing the rhythm of the water, finding stillness in motion, and approaching each cast with intention and awareness. Our products are designed to facilitate this mindful approach, allowing you to experience the meditative qualities of fly fishing and find harmony with nature.

Handcrafted with Care

At Zen Outfitters, we’re committed to preserving the traditions of fly fishing while embracing innovation. Our furled leaders and tenkara lines are meticulously hand-tied, ensuring precision and durability. Our silk fly lines are a testament to our dedication to craftsmanship, each one carefully braided on a 100-year-old machine and finished with a blend of natural oils for a smooth, supple feel.

Made in North America

We’re proud to be the only North American maker of silk fly lines, keeping this time-honored tradition alive. Our commitment to quality extends to every aspect of our business, from sourcing the finest materials to hand-finishing each product with care.
