I also just started tying and started with a woolly. After a dozen or so I
moved on to Clousers (going to Florida in April). I must say that something
that looks so simple can really be a headache, but nothing beats landing a
fish with the first fly you've tied. I'm hooked!

I have been an avid tyer for a number of years. What would you suggest
for the beginner as his/her first fly?? I started years ago and my
first was the "Wooly Worm". Thanks!! Mike

Woollys of various type often seem to be suggested as a good beginners
flys
I think a GP nymph is as good as anything. In my case it was a pair #10
Black seal's fur nymph. Ugly spuds that nevertheless caught fish.
