This was a great beginners kit for a great price. kzbin.infoUgkxKRURvLsu9Vvyw7gIuvt8FsApoQNCdz-1 Its given us a huge variety to test out and see what works well and what we like to use. Majority of the flies have stayed together well, but some of the rainbow warriors did unravel after catching a few blue gill. All in all, this was a great kit and are so happy with the purchase and value for money.

Just moved back to central PA after being away for 20 years. I set the computer near my vise and follow step by step. Great instruction and I'm so glad you don't have useless music. It's a thrill to catch trout on flies I tied myself. My only problem is all my old fishing buddies are now to sick or crippled to fish with me.
@TheFlymanJim5 жыл бұрын
I understand that. Being an old soul my fishing buddies have been much older. As a result I've had several pass away. Now I have two that are near my age, so hopefully we will be fishing together for some time.

Sixty years ago as a teen I fly fished. Not long after beginning I started tying baits. I had few pictures to go by and didn't know what dubbing was nor how to use it right. I learned where hackle feathers came from and my parents had chickens for eggs and food. I chased down some hackle from live chickens. Those were the days. ha

Great video for beginners and those on a tight budget. Simple flies have caught me more fish than the fancy ones have. For panfish, I use a very simple mosquito fly or a skunk nymphs for wet flies and I use a green or black foam spider when they are surface feeding. I even use fur off me cats for dubbing and their whiskers for tails...LOL. Look at nature for fly patterns, Make them resemble food. Fly tying doesn't have to be expensive or complicated....just enjoy what your doing!

Hi Jim, I tie my tips in much the same way but I tie them in over the eye, then go all the way back and do the tail, and body then I come back up and stand the wing up and get ready for the hackles. It works well for me. I read it in a book called the complete book of fly tying by Eric Leiser. Try it you may like it too. All the best, Sean

Hi Jim, Just watched both vid's with interest, thank you. But they do not show what I want i'm afraid. What I need a lesson video on, is how to select a right and left wing instead of selecting 2 lefts or 2 rights and picking wings from THEM.
