Leland on Simms Fishing Products
It's funny how childhood memories can influence one's life!
Just ask K.C. Walsh of Simms Fishing Products about the underlying
theme of his company and its location. He'll tell you it was because his
grandfather took him fly fishing in Bozeman, MT as a young man. Funny how what started as a desire by K.C. to work in the fly fishing industry, turned into the design of the world's best fishing waders and apparel.
Funny how that vision of wader design transformed a company into one
that now manufacturers what is considered by many to be the finest collection of fly fishing outdoor wear in the entire industry. Funny? Not really. Just great concepts and a lot of hard work: Welcome to Simms Fishing Products!
At Leland Fly Fishing Outfitters, we carry and use only the best fly fishing gear.
There’s not enough time in our hurried world to worry about whether our
chest waders or rain jackets are going to leak. We talk with K.C. quite
frequently and love to listen about his passion for developing the most
useful and highest quality fly fishing gear. We at Leland have toured
the Simms factory, attended their numerous product seminars, and vigorously used and field tested their equipment and we can tell you flat out: Simms Fishing Products is doing it right!

Wherever you fish, you're going to find fishing guides. And wherever
you find fishing guides, you're going to find Simms Fishing Products. Guides need gear

it through. What does that mean for someone who's not a professional
guide? Anything that's designed to meet the performance needs of guides
is gear you can count on. Simms. The choice of professional guides.
And anyone else who lives to fish.
