:smash: chubsdad, if you want to get started in fly tyin for salt. your best bet is to get your self a (good vise.) then pick a patten you want to learn, an BUY the meterials for that fly, then pick another patten an so on, that WILL save you on MATERIALS, an you will have some GOOD stuff, the kits are NOT realy great, you can get stuff you will NEVER use.this way you can buy thread, bobbins, head cement an so on an get better QUALITY.an tie BETTER flies. food for thought,
"good luck good tyin"
