Nestled along the banks of the Lackawaxen River in the town of Hawley, Pennsylvania, resides Housefly; a fishing shop that strives to marry fly fishing, tying essentials, and conservation with local and international art. Opening in the spring of 2021, avid fishermen and founders Sean Witman, Tim Miller, and Dan Santoro offer an eclectic approach to fishing retail. It has been gaining admiration with fishing and outdoor communities alike.

Our team connected with Sean and Tim of Housefly on a fishing trip to local New York streams and rivers of the Catskills mountains. Using a mixture of dry fly and nymphing techniques for a variety of fish, Tim and Sean wear-tested the River S/S Fishing Shirt, River Shorts, a range of graphic t-shirts and headwear from the Summer 2021 collection.
