I ordered a jig tying kit from Bass Pro this morning, along with an assortment of powder paints, additional marabou, Chenille, thread, and buck tails in a variety of colors.

When I was still in high school -- 20 years ago -- I used to tie trout flies with my dad so I'm not a complete novice but its been a long, long, while!

I'm gonna need lots of helpful advice this summer as me and my boys try to learn to tie our own.
