March 5, 2007. I've transitioned to a new level of fly fishing--that of fly tier. I started by creating a Wooly Bugger. According to the Orvis Fly Tying Guide, the Wooly Bugger is one of the easiest flies to make, especially for a novice tier. I found the book to be an easy guide with lots of pictures and instruction. While it aint pretty--I tied my first. I'm working on a Copper John--a lot more difficult than the bugger. I'm anxious to give it a try--my luck, it will end up high in a tree. C ya!
