Wow...thanks again gang. Good stuff.

OK, so I'm eyeing the Dr. Slick kits now. They do look nice. Is one bobbin enough to start with, or should I add a second? What about scissors?

I am in West Texas (Midland to be precise). I will be fishing in the Dallas area and the Hill Country most of the time.

I do intend to keep my "firsts" flies, thanks for that tip! Maybe I'll get lucky and the first tie and catch will be the same fly. (A newbie can always dream!)
