Tying Flies

You can get patterns any number of places on the web. Harry Mason has some
nice tying instructions on his website, Orvis has the patterns for most of
what they sell up on their website. After a while you should be able to
look at a fly and tie it but that takes some getting used to the materials
and techniques. Best overall book I've seen is The Fly Tier's Benchside
Reference To Techniques and Dressing Styles by Ted Leeson and Jim
Schollmeyer. It's expensive but there aren't a whole lot of things left out
of it.

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving
safely
in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways -
Chardonnay in one hand - strawberries in the other - body thoroughly used
up,
totally worn out, and screaming - WOO HOO! What a Ride!"

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
