TotallyFlyTying 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2010 Hello, I have been tying for around a year and I never heard of realistic Fly Tying untill I joined this forum. I was wondering what the best way for a beginner like me to get into this form of art? i.e what materials to use, how to use them and of course, a good fly to begin with. Many thanks and best reagrds, ~David Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arkle 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2010 Have just spoken to David & afterwards watched a couple of his videos. He's a very competent lad with both a rod & tying gear. I'm sure he'll be well at home here amongst us. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
