Fly Fishing Flies Tying your own flies is very rewarding and relaxing. There is nothing more rewarding than landing a big trout lured by one of your own hand tied flies. Tying itself is a great hobby especially in the off trout season when it is frozen or waters are closed.

We offer several good fly tying tools such as Rite Bobbin and Dr. Slick tools. Also, we have Griffin vises and tools.
The tools are simple. First, beginners will need a fly tying vice. There have been over the years quite a number of different vice types manufactured. In my opinion, the cam type of vice is the easiest to use. This is a vice that has a cam lever to open and close the jaws. It's adjustable to various angles and hook sizes. Quick and easy to open and close. Many of the inexpensive ones are very good. It will be best if you buy a kit of fly tying tools including hackle pliers, bobbins, and the such. You will also need a decent pair of curved scissors with sharp points and another set with small straight blades.

Once you have tools you will need materials. These days there are some very good fly tying kits with all you will need - spend less than $100 as many of the beginner kits are very good now. Most kits will have an inexpensive vice, passable scissors, pliers, hooks and all the feathers and fur you need to get started. Some even come with videos or DVDs.

Tying your own flies is very rewarding and relaxing. My Doctor evens states that is is good for arthritis. The satisfaction of catching your next trout on a fly you tied yourself is immeasurable.
