High-end S.F. clothier tries to reel in fly fishermen

George Revel and Lost Coast Outfitters get some love from SF Gate.

At the downtown San Francisco clothing store Wingtip, the discerning customer can find a $2,500 leather briefcase, a $495 pair of tasseled loafers or a $3.25 Epoxy Golden Stone Nymph.

The last item might not be that fashionable. But it is attractive, especially if you’re a trout. With proper casting, a hand-tied nymph like that can have fish jumping.

It’s one of the featured items at Lost Coast Outfitters, which I believe we can say is the most urban fly-fishing shop in America. Located at the back of the haberdashery, it’s the place to go in San Francisco to cast a fly rod on the roof, try on a pair of bib-front waders or just show off photos of your latest catch.
