Andrzej Koziel


My name is Andrzej Koziel and I am a fisherman from Cracow, southern Poland. It was about twenty five years ago when my fly fishing adventure has started. I still remember my first bamboo rood with very thick fishing line ending by some fly I bought in the shop. Unfortunately in that time flies were not efficient and quite expensive. I decided to start tying flies for me. After while I realized that it became to be a pleasure to catch a fish using my own flies. Then I started tying for ma son who was six when he has started with fly fishing and tying his first funny flies. Some day I was asked to tie some flies by some fishermen I met fishing. I did it and he won some competition. From that moment I have been tying flies for Polish competitors who have had many successes in international fly fishing championships. I also participate in competitions. Four years ago I met Mike Watts from United Kingdom who tested my flies in English streams. He convinced me to start sharing my fishing experience with others. Trout and grayling fishing is my passion and I am focused on tying baits especially for those kinds of fish. I don't tie flies one can find in catalogues. I have my own unique patterns, my own ideas, my own imagination and passion!
