I like to fish with a teaser often. I've used Umpqua flys but what I find is that the hooks are too brittle and I break them stuck in rocks and have lost some nice fish to the same.

I have a vice now, picked it up from my father, it's too big for his flys (trout) but is about right and very flexible for the hooks I'd want to use.

Here's the thing, I've never tied a fly. What is the minimum I need to get to start with something like a deceiver? For all I know I will hate doing this, so I don't want to shell out tons, just enough to get me going with a little help from you tube.

These would be for bass fishing from the surf.

Thanks,
Dave
