Fly Fishing Fly Tying

do i have a fishing problem?

i am constantly wanting more and more fly fishing and/or fly tying materials...even if i dont have the money i still look and want...do i have a problem or am i just addicted to it?
no i dont spend necesary money...im still a kid...still at home....

Nah, it'll pass. And I know exactly WHEN it will pass. It will pass when:

...you have a stockpile of materials that you are accustomed to working on and when you have enough to tie the flies you need.

...you have the necessary tools to easily and conveniently tie the flies you need.

...you have tried all the funky and interesting materials, tools, books, etc., you see online or in the fly shop. You will sort out the things that are really useful and what is merely faddish or excessive, and you have narrowed your commonly used materials and tools to the ones you really need and use.

...you have learned most of the basic techniques and can easily tie the flies you need for an upcoming excursion.

..the novelty has worn away from this new hobby, and it's more like fishing itself (you still look forward to and enjoy it, but you're not so ga-ga about it).

Once those conditions have been met, your life will go back to more-or-less normal, and you'll just be fly tier. You might still be obsessed, but the obsession will "settle down" somewhat so you can do the other things in life that give us enjoyment -- like eat, sleep, go to the toilet, etc.

Check Out the Basics in Fly Fishing and Fly Tying

Fly fishing is a skill that is achieve thru use of right equipment, right angle precision, and right fly tying. The techniques in fly fishing and fly tying should come hand in hand to achieve fly fishing success. Tying the knot is as important as choosing the right equipment in fly fishing. Techniques of fly fishing and fly tying are learned easily when following the right steps and guidelines. Before the learning the right techniques in fly fishing, one must learn the right tying of the knot in order to be attached to the fly-fishing tackle.

Below are different types of knot to make to be attached to the fly fishing tackle.

Surgeons knot

This is the simplest knot to tie and is very strong in structure. This is usually used when the tippet is almost used up and another piece needs to be tied. The first thing to do is to overlap two lines with tag ends on opposite direction. This should be approximately 6 inches in length. Then, a loop is made where the right side is passed over and around the left side twice. The last step is to pull on all 4 ends of the knot and moisten it to make it hold together. The tag ends will then be clipped close to the knot.

Nail Knot

This is commonly used to attach backing line. A needle may be used for this type of knot. The first step is to assemble the fly line and the needle along the fly line. Then the backing line is laid along with the needle and then a turn is made to secure and hold all pieces together. The tag end is pushed to the channel created by the needle and the tag end is pushed forward while the needle is slowly withdrawn. This will tighten the knot.

Arbor Knot

This type of knot is useful in tying and securing on line end to spool arbor of the reel. The first step is to have the line around the reel's spool arbor. Then an overhead knot is tied to tag end. This is the first overhead knot and a second overhand knot should be made close to the first one. The standing part of the line is pulled to allow 2 overhand knots to jam on the spool. Tag end can be trimmed to make it neat.

The knot is a very important part of fishing tools because it stands between the fish biting the lure and your rod. If your knot is not tied properly and you don't use the appropriate one, it might just cost you the fish of your life. Seriously, you should be very mindful of all your fishing tools. They are not very many but each one is essential because each one has its own function. And these tools differ in qualities. If you are more of action fishing with bass flying fishing, you must get the strongest and most durable fishing tools on hand because it's going to be a struggle and battle. If you have a weak rod, not properly tied knot, and inappropriate lure, bass flying fishing will be just a dream.
