I have been an avid tyer for a number of years. What would you suggest
for the beginner as his/her first fly??
A streamer of some sort as the hook/materials are large, easy to handle, it is
much easier to work out proper proportions and someone lacking experience or
talent can produce acceptable results.

I started years ago and my
first was the "Wooly Worm". Thanks!! Mike
