Michel Lajoie Michel Lajoie
Hi, my name is Michel Lajoie. I was born in Montreal, Quebec, and I got interested in fly fishing and fly tying in my early adult life, around 1965. Some people say that tying classics requires patience, I disagree, it take passion. Once you have a passion for tying you don't need patience. It's a lifelong love of feathers and furs.

I own a small fly shop south of Montreal (Chateauguay) called Le Moucheux. It can be viewed in both an English and a French version. Most of my time is spent running the shop, tying flies, building bamboo rods and landing nets. The only way I can escape the routine of the shop, is to get lost in what I love the most, tying the Classics.

I do not publicize my Classic Flies and rarely sell them. Occasionally I do sell them to my friends.

Thanks,

Michel Lajoie
