I started tying in 1966. I was 9 years old and went to a Trout Unlimited course at a high school. I used these skills all my life up until a few years ago when I developed central tremors. Now days I just buy my flies. I would tell anyone considering a hobby or activity for a young person that this art is very rewarding. Catching your first fish on a fly that you crafted with your own hands is a life long memory. This art can be very lucrative as well.

I still tie whenever I can however these days it’s harder because I no longer have places I can get to for fishing. I taught myself how to when at 20 I was hit by a car walking home from work from behind the driver too busy yelling at her kids to be paying attention to where she was going. I was in the hospital 3 days and out of work 3 and a half months I had to have something to do so I learned to tie my own flies . Been doing it ever since. As a foot note does anyone know of good places to fish walking distance around the bolivar Missouri area. Because I don’t have the luxury of driving 1 never learned and these days it wouldn’t do any good because I couldn’t afford it things have become so expensive. The working poverty class like me can only afford to keep rent and utilities paid with only food money left and nothing saved. No I’m not asking for financial help I will manage as I always have. Just asking for places that I can fish that I can walk to.

In NZ I learned of the "nail polish fly" from a guide. Very simple-- wrap plastic around a large barbless hook and paint with bright pink nail polish.Streamlined and sinks fast. I hooked and lost a massive brown using it in a deep pool. Also good for deep runs where you want to get down deep fast w/o weights or even a bead head. He said some guides frowned on it.

In my opinion, I really don't see why a fly should be "banned" because the entire point of fishing as a sport is doing whatever you can to fool the fish. I would understand if you were actually cheating somehow, like literally brainwashing all of the fish in the water or something, but this is just really good bait. I don't see the issue with that.
