meet your tier
my name is Josh Idol and I’m a commercial fly tier and photographer based in Miami, Florida. I’ve been tying flies for over 30 years and working in the fly fishing industry for more than a decade. every season I tie and sell several thousand flies designed for south Florida’s premier flats fisheries and beyond.
the idea for TwoAught came about while I watched my buddy pick through through my fly box at the ramp one morning in the middle of tarpon season. he’d been running charters every day for weeks on end and his stash of flies from the offseason was long gone. I realized that unless you have the time and the skill to tie your own flies you just can’t get your hands on the flies that local guides and anglers use down here in south Florida.
over the last six seasons I’ve had the privilege to tie those flies for some of the best guides and tournament anglers in south Florida and around the world. if you’ve ever wished you could buy the flies you see in your guide’s fly box, now you can.
“Josh has been tying and designing flies for some of the most respected guides and anglers in the saltwater game. We’ve collaborated on custom patterns that have given me an edge in tournaments and contributed to the trophies I chase. His professionalism is unmatched.”
-Tim O’Brien, Tournament Angler & BTT Board Member
