Now that the Internet is becoming more popular, the amount of information on fly fishing available through the World Wide Web has increased to the point that you can shop for gear, look at information on places to fish and places to stay, swap flies and generally get into trouble with fly fishermen the world over.

One popular type of site is the electronic fly shop. With information on all types of fly tackle, fly fishing gear and accessories, virtual fly shops are now up and running in Canada, the US, and Europe.
