There is nothing like a local fly shop. Every time we walk into one we always walk out questioning every decision we have made in life, wondering why we are not working or owning a shop. We got that same feeling walking into Mend Provisions in Minneapolis, MN. If you find yourself in the area, make your way to 42nd and 28th around the corner from the famed Angry Catfish, there you will find a little slice of heaven.

Everything you need to get on the water is found in this shop, whose tag line, “Mend your line, brah” speaks to us more than anyone will ever know. An array of gear from names like Simms, Orvis, and Redington, a huge selection of fly tying materials and rods will ensure to make your next trip a success.
