Snowbee (UK) Ltd., is part of the International Snowbee Group, which was established in Taiwan in 1978. The UK branch has the backing of a large International Group, with offices in Taiwan, Singapore, New Zealand, Canada and the USA, together with manufacturing bases in Taiwan, China & Korea, in addition to our UK manufactured products.
In common with most Tackle Companies, the main production base is in the Far East. However, what makes Snowbee unique is that all the product design and development work, for the entire group, is carried out at the UK office. The design team are all keen Fly Fishermen, with between them, over 80 years experience in all aspects of our sport – Single-handed trout fly fishing, 2-handed Salmon Spey fishing and Saltwater Fly Fishing.
Based in Plymouth, in the far south west of England, we are spoilt for choice in our fly-fishing. A short distance to the north is Dartmoor National Park. Thousands of acres of unspoilt moor-land; the peat moor providing gin clear brooks and streams, full of wild brownies, with lightening reactions. Further down the valleys, these streams combine forces to create the Rivers Tamar & Plym, which border the City of Plymouth to the east & west and feed into Plymouth Sound. These two mighty rivers and their associated tributaries, offer a wealth of Salmon & Sea-Trout Fishing. Our moorland streams & rivers flow into spectacular reservoirs, which together with numerous small stillwater fisheries, provide unparalleled loch style & stillwater fly fishing.To the south of us is the sea, bordered by a rugged coastline with numerous estuaries offering spectacular sport for the saltwater fly fisher, with species such as Bass, Sea-Trout, Pollack & Mackerel in abundance.
This wealth of fly-fishing opportunity and practical experience allows us to give the forward-looking angler exactly what he wants, rather than what a manufacturer thinks he wants!
First introduced to the UK market in 1984, the original range of Lightweight PVC Waders has grown considerably to include a full range of Fly Fishing gear - our aim being to equip the progressive, modern day fly fisher from head to toe, with clothing tackle and accessories.
