    Behind the Fly
    Did the world really need another fly fishing / fly- tying book?
    Why?
    I have read many books and articles that recommend that the beginning fly tyer should invest in the best fly tying vise he or she can afford.
    When a dollar figure is attached to a “good” beginner’s vise it is often in the to price range.
    The rationale is that a low-cost tool can be more difficult to use, and will distract from the fly tying experience.
    I have even seen the total cost of entering fly-tying stated as 0 to 0.
    Yikes!
    I take a very different approach in my recommendation.
    If you build your own vise and tie flies on it, you are well on your way to years of enjoying fly-tying and fishing.
    A low entry price into fly-tying allows you to view it not as an investment, but a pleasurable activity that cost about what it would cost to go to the movies with snacks.
    I have led 4-H-ers, boy scouts, and classes of high school students in building their own fly-tying vises.
    Perhaps you would like to give it a try as well.
