James I have been tying for 25 years and sell only to locals in my area but when I retire in a couple of years I get serious about advertising. Smalljaw told me years ago that if I kept winning tournaments on my jigs word would finally get out and he was right. Places like bass pro and other suppliers have great selections on bass and crappie jigs bit the quality is poor. Plus, you can make custom colors that aren't offered in the big name shops. Problem with tying for the public is it gets so out of hand you can't fish anymore!

Agreed! That’s the truth lol

Where is a good place to buy materials at?

[@FishingWithJames]

I get my materials from Barlows, nimrod’s tackle, woods and water, and crazy angler 👍🏻

Patrick over at Woods and Water has the best quality and volume of cheniles I have ever purchased. Barlow's is another source. I won't lie I am fond of woods and water because the amount of chenile you get per pack is normally more that required. Problem with all suppliers of chenile right now is production. Many of the colors that are new or popular are out of stock and that's with all vendors. I am not affiliated with either source but I am fond of woods and water. Patrick's customers service is second to none. Really good guy. If ordering certain colors whether it is at Barlow's or Woods and Water please be patient. Both companies are having a heck of a time getting cheniles right now and when they do happen to get some in they sell out really. Hopefully as time goes by this problem will improve.

Fly Fish Food and Hareline also are good sites for materials!
