Hello all. I've been a freshwater angler for some time now and am
ready to try my hand at fly fishing. I live in North Georgia were
there are several trout streams and even a river within a 5-10 minute
walk from my house.
Anyways, this month I'll be headed to Bass Pro Shops to pick out fly
fishing gear but thought that in the meantime, I'd like to order a
beginners fly-tying kit, preferrably with an instructional DVD so I
can go ahead and learn the ropes of fly tying and have a few flies on
me before I get out on the water.
Something along these lines:

Anyone have this kit? Is it a good starter kit?
Between Tivo and DVD's, I don't even have a VCR hooked up anymore so
I'd really like something with a DVD as opposed to VHS tape.
Any recommendations on this kit or any others would be appreciated.
I'd like to keep the cost to under $50, as well.
Did anyone else notice that kit includes material and video instruction
for the "Wooly Booger" pattern? I might buy the kit just to see what it
looks like, not to mention the recipe.
