Ryan,

Those sort of things don't exist in a form that will satisfy a dedicated tier. There are loads of "tie a fly " sort of kits where you get all the materials for say 20 flies but your are far better off making a list of patterns, what materials they require and then going to one of the big stores and buying what you need.

This thread has been done several times so a search will throw up several similaer answers. If you have a local shop ( and I know most people don't) get down there and have a rummage.

Regards

Take advice from one who has supplied the Trade with Kits on and off over the years - there ain't one worth a ram !

Whatever you buy you'll still be looking at half of it in 20 years !

I bought one when I was 15 or so and the standing joke between me and Pete Veniard is that he can have half of it back some 47 years later !

For money and with some idea of what you actually want to tie I and other traders can probably put you together a sensibly targetted pack - remember there ain't no bargains out there and the exercise of picking and packing has to be paid for !

Over to you

Best wishes

Steve P
