The Art of Fly Tying is an excellent book for covering the basics of tools and materials as well as the fundamental structures of nymphs, wets, drys, and streamers. Crisp, color photo's are a plus along with a number of recipes for the more popular patterns.

The fastest way to learn is by watching others tie flies. Local TU clubs and/or fly shops usually have tying nights. Old Troller mentioned fly shows… these are "must attend" events for the beginners as well as long-time tyers. The Wasatch Fly Tying & Fly Fishing Expo is coming to Sandy, UT Apr. 6-7.
