Devin Olsen at TacticalFlyfisher dot com has provided Troutstanding Service at very reasonable prices. They are my go to for hooks and beads. I have no complaints from them. Blue Quill Angler has good service and a low minimum purchase price for free shipping. Charlie’s Flybox has outstanding stock of materials and good service. They are a little on the pricey side, but you get good service. And as you have mentioned, Avid Max provides good service and a large inventory. They are close to home, so I rarely mail order from them.

Nice, I’m tieing up some of these for next week!

I tied some juvenile damsel nymphs for next week. These guys are just under an inch long.

Consistency allows the fly tyer to vary single material components to improve performance, or to repeat past successes with a pattern.
