One of the best references available is a book called 'Production Fly Tying' by A.K. Best. It is oriented on fly tying but all the information adapts easily to tying jigs. It for professional fly tiers but is in plain everyday language and covers all the basics of tying with lots of simple tricks thrown in. All the tools are explained with some recommendations (and not necessarily the most expensive.) He discusses about every material available. Mine is an old one but I repeatedly go to it for reference. Many books have been written by (and about) him but this is the one I would recommend. If you are ever near one of his lectures I would most certainly go.
