Re: Materials - Another newbie question.
I am new to the tying game myself, but Dennis just mentioned a key factor for me, substitution. Some of the fun of tying is finding material that works and still completing a fishable pattern. Have...

Re: Nymph Tie-Along?
Thanks, I did tie up 1/2 dozen yesterday, 3 #14's and 3 #16's, they did start to look better, but overall I am pretty happy with my first attempts.
