FLYTYING!!!!!! The best way to get started is going out and get a book. 
The first recommendation would be Dick Stewarts book Fly Tying.  Its a 
really good book, and is set up for a beginner.  I wouldn't start tying 
until I have gone thru a book or two.  Dicks book covers materials, 
hooks, tools, and has a good selection of patterns to start with.  The 
reason I say this is cause, experience has shown me that inexpensive 
materials, and tools really aren't worth it.  Flytying can get a little 
pr icy when buying good stuff, but the cost over buying flies is well 
worth it.  Thats not including joys of tying..  There is no substitute 
for getting wet and catching a really nice fish on a fly you've just 
tied up.  It has its own rewards.  If there is interest in  the echo I 
would be more than glad to post a weekly "Pattern Of The Week."  So just 
let me know.  Oh another choice for beginners is take a fly tying class, 
but I still wouldn't do it without reading Dicks book....let me know 
if you would like a pattern posted....TKS RUSS.....
