Hi Fellas

I was watching How It's Made on the Discovery channel recently and a
fellow was tying a fly. I was intrigued and impressed!!

Where can one learn the fine art of tying flies?

Books and website links will be helpful as well as any other info
you can give me. Thanks in advance.

I would love to learn how to do this. :-D

----------
Many have expressed that tying is almost as much fun as fishing. I wouldn't
go that far, but when the weather is terrible and you can't go fishing, it
is the next best thing for sure. I see others have already given you the
advice I would have. You will find that this sport is very collegial and
many will be generous with their time. It can get somewhat expensive and
obsessive - my wife, who also ties, made me write that! G

As in...I paid 95 bucks for part of a chicken and still haven't had
lunch.....That kind of expensive.
Of course you may tie several hundred flies before buying it again.
