Am considering getting back into fly tying. My back story is that I tied flys as a kid and never got to go fly fishing. Well I'm heading toward retirement and have a Visa Card. What about the Cabella's tool and material kits sold seperately?

My local lake has lillies in the water around the edge. Considering putting 15 lb mno test on the end of my 9 wt and putting bass flies on top and around the brush. This is what the local bass fisherman use to get them out of the weeds.

Can't find a sinking spider comercially so thinking about using smallest split shot I can find to make a floating spider sink.

A sales person as Cabella's suggested that if I found myself in position where I wanted a sinking line I should add weight to the floating line.

Found my self a small fly fishing store on the Mountain Fork river S.E. OK; their rack of flies has the ones working today marked; their prices are as good as bass pro sometimes better; its a religeon or close to it; signed up for their class.
