I started tying flies last season. I went out and picked up a very basic fly tying kit (can't remember where).
Then I watched "sport fishing, on the fly" on youtube. They post videos of show segments, one of which is instruction on fly tying.
I tied probably 40-50 flys, mostly buggers and mickey's. Served me well last season.
The best part for me was being able to tie the same fly in a wide variety of colors, and then experimenting with them.
I sure caught a ton of yellow perch with black buggers with a green tinselly type material in them.
The speckled trout in my lake love white mickey finns.
Good luck!
