 So fly fishing wasn't enough, now you've decided that you are going to tie your own flies too. Maybe you've even picked up some of the basic tools so you could get started. I remember looking at all of the fly tying tools and materials that I had spent my good money on and wondered, "where do I start?"

 If you go fly fishing, you should always have a selection of scuds in your fly box. In just about every trout water where you find underwater weed beds, these crustaceans will be present. Trout will always go for the protein packed scud snack when they have the opportunity. Fish them near the bottom, especially in pocket waters where the turbulence can turn these bugs up.

The Partridge and Green fly is a great searching, soft hackle, wet fly pattern. You can play with the body on this by using other colors; orange and yellow are also very popular. I love the green because of how effective it is in simulating a caddis pupa. Strikes from eager trout can be deadly! Fish these flies using standard wet fly techniques. Trout love them. |

 If you haven't figured it out already, there are many brands and types of fly tying hooks. There are so many choices that if you are not careful, you can easily become overwhelmed... and broke. Since fly fishing can already be an expensive sport, be careful if you purchase your hooks online and keep my fly comparison chart handy. |

Soft hackled wet flies just look cool to me. I think in all the fly fishing and fly tying world, they are the coolest. Not only that, but they are fun flies to tie and to fish. The March Brown Spider is a great searching pattern in runs and riffles when nothing else is working and you can't find a rising trout. |
