what size hook the vice holds is going to depend on the vice etc. If your tying for freshwater hook size will most likely not be the same as tying for saltwater.

Instead of looking at purchasing kits. I'd recommend buying a particular fly you are interested in learning to tie and then asking your local fly shop to assist you in gathering the materials necessary to tie that fly. This is a good way to learn various patterns and you also start to gather materials that can all be put to use. Its easy to get overwhelmed with material selections etc. I'm sure any fly shop will be willing to assist you with gathering the necessary materials. Cant go wrong with a rays fly for saltwater. Hope this helps.

Domination takes full concentration..
