This is the standard tool kit from Creative Angler, an American fly tying specialist brand founded in 1977. Today, it's beloved by anglers worldwide and used by many professionals. This kit includes basic tools that are easy to use, perfect for both professional anglers and beginners who want to try their hand at fly tying but aren't sure what to get.
The kit includes 12 tools, including a fly vice, which serves as a base for making fly hooks; a bobbin holder for winding thread onto fly hooks; a threader for threading the bobbin holder's tube; scissors for cutting thread and other materials; a whip finisher, essential for tying knots; and hackle pliers, which are used to tie hackles onto flies.
Each tool is made of high-precision stainless steel, resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting use. The set also includes an antique-style, luxurious wooden box. By storing your tools in a designated place after use, you can prevent them from getting lost. Its compact size means it doesn't take up much space and can be stored in a small space.
While most conventional fishing involves using commercially available lures, one of the attractions of fly tying is that by using homemade flies, you can enjoy not only fishing but also the fun of making them at the same time. You can also enjoy the fun of customizing them to your liking, with images of what you want to catch more fish, make them more realistic, or make them look cooler.
This is recommended for people who have always loved fishing but want to enjoy it more deeply, are interested in fly tying, are particular about their fishing gear, want to make one-of-a-kind fishing gear, are looking for a grown-up hobby, like making things, don't mind detailed work, are looking for something they can immerse themselves in quietly, or are looking for a tasteful gift for a fishing enthusiast.
