Well, dove in yesterday during my recovery of the ol stomach bug.
After deciding what pattern to try first thanks to the help of ROFF. I went
down to the my local fly shop and got a Phesant tail feather some Size 10 -
3096B Mustad hooks, some head cement and a bigger bobbin. It was a ton
easier that I thought it was going to be. With a little practice on figuring
out how to use the Thompsons whip finisher that came with the kit, I managed
to get my first "E-Z Nymph" fly tied (and 6 more to boot)!

I'm sure it's not a Picasso or anything but I do feel great about getting it
right (at least right-enough). I know as with anything practice makes
perfect. If I had a digital camera I would upload it now but sadly i'm
behind the times as far as technology goes so i'll upload the pic it at a
later time.
