Fly tying

Over the past year I've started to tie my own flies. With help from a neighbor's deceased grandfather's tool box and some one fly kits from Tenkara Bum I'm full throttle. I started off with some simple reverse hackle Tenkara flies and moved onto nymphs, streamers, dries and hoppers. Hoppers being my favorite - I think mainly because they've been so productive as of late. In particular the mini hopper over at AZ wanderings. For me it's a perfect combination of size, weight and wind resistance for cast ability on a Tenkara rod.
