Gurus,
I am just starting in my fly tying journey and I need to buy hooks. Can anyone recommend a quality assortment to get started? All of the different models numbers seem pretty complicated and I do not yet have a favorite brand. I am not trying to be lazy, just looking for suggestions. I probably will start a spreadsheet to keep track of my needs and materials for different patterns.
At this point, I am tying only for trout and mostly the following kinds of patterns:
Nymphs: e.g. Prince Nymph, Pheasant Tails, Green Weenie, Stoneflies
Streamers: Wooly Buggers, Muddler Minnows
Dry Flies: CDC Caddis, Adams, Rusty and Olive Spinners, Grannoms
Emergers: Sulfur Emergers, Hendrickson Emergers
Thanks in advance for pointing me in the best direction!
