Old age, bad eyes and tremors in both hands suggest I just as well sell all my fly tying stuff. I will list it here the best I can, but there is probably more stuff than whats listed. Its mostly in original packaging, and a lot of it never opened. In no particular order:
32 pkgs. Chenille various colors, sizes and types 3 Dubbing Assortment boxes, Antron, Rabbit, Possum 8 pkgs, Rabbit strips, various colors large pkgs. Moose, Elk, Rabbit and died and natural Deer body hair 6 full Bucktails, various colors 9 pkgs. EP fiber and Craft fur 40 +/- pcs Craft foam all colors 5x8 11 tubes and pkgs. Glass and Plastic Beads various sizes and colors 9 pkgs. Flashabou various colors and styles 3 pkgs. Peacock Herl 1 Pheasant skin complete and add'l. tail 5 pkgs. Rubber legs various styles and colors 3 pkgs. Egg Yarn various colors 10 pkgs. Marabou various colors 1 Whiting Hackle Intro Pack (large pkg.) 1 Whiting Bugger pack 11 pkgs. Neck Hackle various colors 6 pkgs. Saddle Hackle various colors 2 Montana Fly Co. Hopper body cutters 23 spools tying thread 3 spools lead wire various sizes 15 spools tying wire various colors and sizes Variety of Bead chain, lead eyes, metal beads Hundreds of Hooks, from size 24 to 2/0 3 Hook Boxes Tying tools and wooden holder Peak Vise
I don't know what to ask for this stuff. I would like to see it get used, perhaps by a dedicated younger fly fisherman.
Let me know what you think.

Ironically, I received a text message this past weekend from an old family friend and her 15 year old boy is wanting to get a starter kit to start tying flies. I think she is thinking a cool Christmas present.
This young man eats, sleeps, breaths fishing and is even setting his sights on Texas A&M Galveston!
How much are you wanting for the whole shooting match?

This is quite a bit more stuff than a "starter kit" and includes a very high quality vise. I would really like to see a young man that had a lot of interest end up using it. There is quite a bit of materials and hooks for salt water flies in this. There is probably $600 to $700 worth of materials including a $150 vise so I am thinking about $300
