What is fly tying?
Fly tying is the art of creating an artificial bait made from synthetic materials, feathers and furs and tying them to a hook with fly tying thread that makes them look like either a real fly or invertebrate (known as an imitative fly) or looking as if it should be food for a fish (suggestive fly) or finally a lure or streamer, a fly that will trigger a fish to attack the fly. Using a vice to hold the hook the fly tyer puts the different elements of the fly together. Of course many things can be used for fly tying, just ask yourselves the questions what are there in fly tying materials near me? What can I use as cheap fly tying materials?

What is Fly Fishing?
Fly fishing is a technique for catching fish like brown trout, rainbow trout, salmon, grayling, pike or saltwater species where the bait is artificial made usually of synthetics, fur and feather through the art of fly tying. The fishing fly once tied by the fly tyer may look like an invertebrate (bug), a fly landing on the water or lure or attractant designed to stimulate the target fish into biting the fly and hooking itself. We try to make the hand tied fishing fly appear to a fish like a bug or invertebrate below the waters surface or a real fly has landed on the top of the water as if it belongs there as part of the natural ecosystem. Unlike other fishing techniques fly fishing is an art form with key components, tying the artificial fly, matching the hatch and reading the water to calculate where fish will be.
An essential part of fly fishing is of course fly tying, using different types of fly tying materials to tie a fishing fly to catch whatever species we are chasing. At The Essential Fly we have large resources of material and offer support and advice to help you with your fly tying needs.
