Quick take
Compact fly tying kit with essential hand tools and carrying case for learning fly tying.
This compact brass-toned kit packs the core tools a new fly tyer needs: hackle pliers, a bobbin with a ceramic insert, a bobbin threader, a whip finisher and all-purpose scissors. It comes in a small case that measures about 7.3 by 4.1 inches, so it travels easily to a tying night or a fishing trip. It suits anglers starting to tie their own flies.
Best for
- Fly tiers new to the craft
- Anglers tying at friends' houses or on fishing trips

Strengths
