Tying Flies
#4
Not all kits are created equal. You have to do HOMEWORK on them.
Like this kit:

http://www.fishusa.com/Wapsi-Deluxe-Fly-...Kit_p.html

Has all the flies you need to get a good hold on fishing and yes it is in a kit. Price is fair enough to upgrade vise and a few more ceramic or teflon bobbins.

When I did work at the fly stores, I was there to help people put together a kit, but for this price they were limited on the different flies.

Granted, the material never goes bad and great to stock up, I just really recommend this kit to beginner here in the Rocky Mountains...great selection of USEABLE flies. Then just replenish the materials as needed.

Oh, and as far as tools, a hair stacker, whip finisher, Bodkin, GOOD bobbins meaning the teflon or ceramic, and a good pair of scissors and NEVER cut wire from the tip of the scissors, us the hinge area.
In the 30+ years I have been tying, I have never used Hackle Pliers, but you may want them.
