Poorly Tied Flies,

There were a LOT of flies in this box, but they are poorly tied, unravel after one cast, and the patterns don't imitate any insect that I've ever seen on the river.

These flies were a good deal. Even though the colors and flies were off for my area and I suspect most areas, and a few of flies were less than well tied. All and all I cant complain for the price. I used these to teach my cousin how to fly fish, because I didn't care if he snapped a few off. Some of the darker - adams -ish not really looking flies did work in area where the fish were biting at anything. So... All in all, these are good flies for either the times when when you are not expecting to catch any fish, or the times when you are catching too many fish. I actually took a few of these and tied on my own adams rabbit hair padding to make them look better. You could also use a fabric spray pain and hit a few of the orange ones with it... This is an impressive set for a newbie to start out with who doesn't know much about fly fishing.... I'm happy overall with the purchase - (But i also took some good flies with me on my trip)

Poorly constructed. Think of them are disposable, one catch flies. Also, the same product is on the shelves at walmart for five bucks.
