Hello again, I'm an avid trout tyer, but i fish for bass, crappie, bluegill, catfish, carp, and pickeral more often. I'm just starting to get into
tying for bass and all of the above but what type of deerhair do you guys prefer, and what other tools and materials should i need just to start off. I know
that there are some expreinced tyers on this site and i was just wondering if you guys had any tips for a ameture bass tyer.

I have had best results with belly hair. It is stiff, spins well and floats like a cork. Alec

Contact Scott at the Bears Den Fly Shop @ 508-977-0700...He has the best quality Deer Hair around to tie Bass Bugs and can give you all the list of materials
to start out. He is a great resource for good material...If you start using poor quality material, it can be very frustrating to learn. I learned that the hard
way and gave up trying for awhile. It wasn't until I got mentored by some good tyers, quality material and tried again, I was successful....Now top water
Bass Buggin has been one of the MOST fun I have had in years, especially with bass Bugs you tie yourself... Good Luck, I am sure some other season tyers can
chime in... check the bass bugs & results in the post, Fishing on the Dark Side....

In addition to the Bears Den which I also would recommend for any of your fly fishing needs I would very highly recommend Chris Helm for Deer Hair. He really knows his stuff and has some of the finest deer hair stock for making bass bugs. His site is http://www.whitetailflytieing.com/ |
