I have proven that a ham-fisted slightly enebriated clutz can tie flies that catch fish . It's just a matter of learning a few techniques. I also know that a few people can carry their tying to another level. What separates the best tiers you know from the rest of us? I suspect that it is precision in applying those techniques combined with making the extra effort to find the best quality materials but I wonder what all of you think.
