Rick Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 www.flyanglersonline.com There are a buch but I think this one will help you lots. Good luck. Also don't be afraid to sign up at a local fly shop for tying lessons. What you will learn will take you a long way forward. Rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regdunlop Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I echo what rickr said. Take a course. You will learn way faster and probably enjoy it a lot more. Tyson at troutfitters does a really good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyson at troutfitters does a really good job. Hi I signed up for a fly tying class late summer this year at Troutfittlers , I was put on a waiting list.. Never heard back or when I called to see when the classes would start.. no news. I signed up at Fish Tails, I'm going on the other side of the city to learn how to make my own flies.. I know I'll enjoy making my own flies.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladystrange Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 i have a few friends that i tie with, but for the most part, i started by reading and taught myself and have never taken a course. every now and then people give me tips but that has been about it. good luck, practice, practice, practice and enjoy tying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harps Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Hi FisherWoman Like mentioned above Fly Angler's Online has a great Beginner site. http://www.flyanglersonline.com/flytying/beginners/ The author works you through a bunch of great lessons. Hipwader (Canadian FF Site) also has a really good online flytying course. http://hipwader.com/flyfishing/oreillys-fl...y-tying-course/ Here is some Hook and Hackle (Calgary) info. I've used this stuff to help beginners before. http://hookandhackleclub.tripod.com/btying.html (the site has pop-ups) Their are also some videos on http://www.hook.tv/ and you can download the PBS series "Anglers Art" Online ( http://kwsu.org/Offers/OMNFlyTying.aspx ). Its a great series and you can get over 50 of the half-hour shows for free!!! These are the program descriptions. And You tube has some tying videos, along with the rest of the junk on there. NOTHING beats a good hands on course, though. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
