Take a $30 class at a fly shop or find a local tier, they will teach you more tricks to be successful in 1 hour and 20hours of reading a book.  You will also find out what materials and size hooks you really need vs the junk in the started packs

Yes. Do this. half a dozen to a dozen lessons will hook you..

You might want to look up Pat's Atomic Fly shop in Moses Hole, they might offer cheap lessons.

He closed down a while ago, he now works in the flight program at Big Bend. I see him every day, I should just ask for lessons haha

I did not know the shop was no more.  A very close family friend started the flight program @ BBCC Col. Don Wright.  He died a few years ago, great man.  He patterned the flight school schedule off of the flight schedule he learned during the Berlin airlift

That's pretty cool. My dad went through the program in 82-83 and I take my commercial checkride tomorrow. It's a pretty good program.

Ducks are not hard to hit, they are just easy to miss.
