What a great video with Dad! Mine passed in 2019, but there isn't a day I don't think of him. Like yours, he was always there for me, and I think I made him proud. Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year, MRO!
Brian, I’ve enjoyed tremendously coming to your shop and getting to know you and your family over the past 30 years. Fishing trips with your dad have been special, and I’ve appreciated the help your mom has provided with travel plans. You’ e done amazing things with your fly shop and have become a good friend. Hope to take more trips with you. Locke
wow ! all I can say is WOW! Thank you for sharing how Mad River Outfitters began and some of the past thirty years. It is very touching to see your father and to see the love and caring that you and your family has for each other and for this awesome lifestyle called Fly fishing. I came back to fly fishing and would never stayed without your videos of guidance and skills. I have learned to love fly fishing because of your love of fly fishing. Thank you and everyone at Mad River Outfitters.
What a pleasure to see you and your dad together and to hear a little about your past. Also I made my first online purchase from Mad-river last week and the hand written thank you note you sent along with my order was awesome! Thanks Brian
Great story and perfect time for this video. I am new to fly fishing and enjoy watching mad river outfitters videos, I have never met Brian but have emailed him numerous times with questions and he always responds with answers. He has been sincere,honest and patient with me and I am truly thankful for that. Seems like the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree after listening to these two men.
Congrats, Brian, and mom and dad. I noticed toward the end that you might have accomplished something that I came close to, but never quite completely pulled off with my tough as saddle leather dad--bring him to tears. Gratitude is the best gift you could ever give them.....and yourself. 🙏
Thanks Dad, without you there wouldn't be a Brian and thus no Mad River Outfitters. Now if you could just get him to get out "The End of the Line" I would be most grateful. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
Great way to show the value of values! Underpinning of good business. Only been to your store once-but always enjoy your commitment to a value driven endeavor!
Great to see your Mom and Dad on video Brian, and hear about some of the history of the business. Here's to another 30 years in business and I hope you are there still making videos then too! Happy new year to all of you!
yeah let’s hope not. Because the big box stores never carry anything that is useful. Plus I enjoy walking into shops and talking with like minded people.
Thank you! You are an incredible ambassador to the craft Mr. Flechsig! Thank you.
Thanks for being here. Will make sure Brian sees this for sure!!! He'll appreciate that.
Thanks for 30 years of Mad River Outfitters. You guy have a wonderful family and team of employees. Thank you

The most wholesome thing I have watched all day long! Thank you.

Thanks-great video. It's long distance, but I've got to get to Ohio & Pennsylvania to fly fish.
Thanks for watching. We'd love to have you!
Brian your dad mentioned some of shops here in Cincinnati at one time we had 4 or 5 shops and now I think it is three at the most.
@@timberboy1984 Fly shops are a dying breed? Let’s hope not!
yeah let’s hope not. Because the big box stores never carry anything that is useful. Plus I enjoy walking into shops and talking with like minded people.
@ Never been more important to support small business and not Big Box/Amazon.
@ they can’t give a good water condition or a fishing report. They for sure can’t give a good fly selection.
A tip of the hat to your Mon & Dad!
@@Swamp-Fox Thanks so much for watching.
