Encounter Fly Tying Kit

The bobbin holder alone was worth it, threads smoothly without fraying even on my first whip finish. Everything needed for a beginner is in the box, so I tied a dozen woolly buggers my first weekend.

I've never tied a fly before this, and the materials included were enough to get me through my first few woolly buggers without a trip to the shop. Everything I needed was already in the box.

The bobbin and whip finisher alone made this worth it, and I tied my first usable woolly bugger the same night it arrived. Materials are basic but there's enough chenille and hackle to practice for weeks without reordering.
