Quick take
One hundred twenty-two hand-tied flies in forty-eight patterns covering dry flies, nymphs, wets and streamers, with two fly boxes and match-the-hatch cards.
This hand-tied fly assortment from Ventures Fly Co. comes in two fly boxes and mixes dry flies, wet flies, nymphs, streamers, terrestrials and more in small sizes. It suits newer fly anglers who want a broad starter selection without tying their own, and it points at trout, bass and panfish. The kit weighs about 3.2 ounces, so it rides easily in a vest or pack.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
