Buy the materials for the flies you intend to tie

Different schools of thought on this one. Pretty heavily discussed suggest you head for the search button.

You probably wont use half of what is in a kit, as Chelsea123 says, buy what you need.

Determine which flies you're likely to need/use and buy the materials to tie them with.
