The DR.SLICK Company is one of the leading suppliers of high quality stainless steel tools (scissors, clamps and pliers) and accessories (nippers, retractors, files and fly tying tools ) to the fly fishing and general fishing industry. Kenneth A High, M.D founded the wholesale -based company in 1989. As a fisherman and fly-tyer, Dr. High was wholly unimpressed with the quality of the tools on the market for fly tying and fishing applications. As a surgeon, Dr. High was used to working with top quality tools designed to perform specific tasks with great precision.
