An Interview with Dr. Tom Whiting | Whiting Farms x Anglers All

Last December, the Anglers All crew went down to Delta, Colorado, to visit the best fly tying feather operation in the world: Whiting Farms. The plan was to tour the facility, learn about Whiting's process, and place a large order for the upcoming tying season. While we did do all that, we also got a chance to sit down and talk with Whiting's founder: Dr. Tom Whiting.
In this video, Dr. Whiting takes us through his extensive educational background, how Whiting Farms was started, and where it's going. We also get a better understanding of Whiting's passion and process when it comes to his operation. If you're a fly tyer or in the fly fishing industry, this interview is a must watch!

Dr. Hoffman is a Colorado state treasure! Thankful for what he brings to our sport.

Enjoyed the interactive interview with both crews. The exchange of interests and the attention to detail Tom has and the staff he trusts to assist to make key decisions.

Interesting character who makes the best hackles on the planet. I’m sure every Tier would love just 1 hour on his own in the good Doctors inventory. Thanks for sharing

Surprised they let you in the building. Heard they were pretty secretive.

Did whiting farms remove his you tube page?

[@AnglersAll]

Not sure about this one!

[@robgreen6697]

I wonder if the same could be applied to pheasant and partridge or peacock imagine 30 cm herls

[@AnglersAll]

Good question!
