Dr. Christian Marrero - The Miami Fly Guy!

Happy to introduce our Guru, and Founding Team Member here on Flats Nation

Dr. Christian Marrero who is better known in the Instagram World as the "The Miami Fly Guy" is just one heck of a Bug Slinger and an even better Fly Tyer!

Dr. Christian Marrero

Brother Christian has been most helpful to me here fielding questions, hearing some crazy ideas, and jumping "Like a Bone on one of his flies!" when we asked him to become assimilated (Resistance is Futile) and a member of the Flats Nation Team, and share his knowledge and artistry on the vise with us 😊

And (which shocked me) is planning his wedding to his lovely fiance' Jessica so we need to squeeze as much content and production from Christian before he really becomes assimilated and can't even take a call much less, go fishing! 😉


God Bless them both! And quite sure his fishing days and calls from me are still safe and suspect... His product output will need to increase even more! So, everybody send in your orders soon, to help offset the costs of not only the wedding! But also, all the new gear he is going to pick up for his New Bride 😊


The concept and plans we are working on with Christian which I feel will be just awesome and bring great value to our quickly growing community here on Flats Nation thus far:


  • Christian is starting his article series where he is going to highlight his work, how to create them, and (when possible) how to best present them for the intended targets! Brother Christian has already started on his first article in the series, and it looks awesome! He and I need to go pull some R&D (Fishing) with some soon!

  • For those who just do not have the gear or the time (guilty as charged) to create your own or needed variants of them. We are working on building out an online ordering and catalog system so you can just order X amount in the colors of your choice and need to match the appearance of your local forage species. Naturally, the color of the bottom in your preferred or planned fishing destinations may have color scheme implications. So, when placing orders with Christian which is now on his Instagram page found by clicking Here, Do let him know where you are planning to use them, and the bottom type you will be covering if known.

  • And then lastly (for now) Christian and I will spool up some Podcasts to cover this topic in-depth. We are already working on how to best group those shows so they are targeted for your needs/species you are looking to pick a fight with! 😊
