FLY TYING SUPPLIES
Vise - The vise holds the hook firmly while material is added to the hooks shank. All of our introductory vises will work well with the hooks that beginning fly tyers will most likely use.
Bobbin - Holds and dispenses spools of thread and floss. Weighted bobbins keep tension on the thread while it is left hanging. A bobbin threader helps you feed the thread through the small bobbin tube.
Scissors - Scissors will be used used to cut material on every fly you tie. The best scissors will cut material cleanly for an extended period without sharpening. Purchase the best scissors you can afford.
Hackle Pliers - Used to grip the end of hackle while wrapping the hackle around a hook shank.
Odd and Ends - Hair stackers, half hitch tools, bodkins, tweezers. All are handy tools to have as you progress in tying and attempt more fly patterns.
