Who is MAD? Well, this is MAD. Born in 1972 and raised in Mörrum, Sweden.
At the age of 13 I was walking with a friend along the River Mörrum when he was selling flies to fishermen and I thought, "this is a great idea to make some money".
My friend teached me the basic techniques of fly tying, so I borrowed 500,00 kr from my father and bought the equipment I needed to start tying. I made flies that sold with great success at the first attempt along the river.
In 1986 I started fishing in River Mörrum myself, 14 years old. For several years I fished and tied flies.
I worked professionally for some years tying flies for a living.
In springtime 2020 my partner encouraged me to start tying again and Madflies2020 was born.
Kind regards
Fredrik "MAD" Wallin
