THE STORY OF MANIC TACKLE PROJECT

IT ALL STARTED WRAPPING SOME THREAD TO A HOOK

Rene Vaz, Manic’s founder, got his start as a school kid tying flies for tackle stores. By the time he’d reached university to study fisheries biology he was working in one of those stores, writing and photographing for the leading Australasian fishing magazines, competing as the youngest member of the NZ fly fishing team and teaching fly casting on the rugby field close to his house.

You could say at that point his future in fly fishing was set in stone and Manic Tackle Project was already in motion.
