Marryat was founded in 1970, designing and building fly rods since 1998, used by medal winners across the globe.

George Selwyn Marryat (1840 – 1896) was a country gentleman and British angler most noted for the development of dry-fly fishing on the chalk streams of southern England. Upon his death in 1896, he became known as the “Prince of Fly Fishers”.

Marryat and one of his companions FM Halford changed the history of fly fishing by devising a way of imitating insects in or on the water the way a trout would see them. He was considered by his contemporaries as the most ingenious pioneer of his time.
