Cool Fly Tying Materials

Hey Fellow AO Members,

I am currently part of a Back Country Hunters and Anglers club at the University of Lethbridge. We are quickly growing and starting to look for more events. We are going to start doing some fly tying as there has been quite a large demand for it. We hope to grow the supply list as we go through various fundraising events. However, seen as this is the first year we are starting at square one we are looking for any free supplies, (or possibly even cheap supplies) to help get this up and running. Nothing fancy but maybe an old vise that's been lying around, some chenille for wooly buggers, thread, bobbins, hooks, etc. Open to anything, feel free to send me a PM and we can chat more.

Best price on hooks, beads and some materials is Canadian Llama (http://www.canadianllama.com/) a BC company. Seeing as you are a Hunting and Fishing club, I would think all kinds of feathers and fur should be available to you for little to no expense. Check some other forum's classifieds. eg. Fly BC (http://forum.flybc.ca/), Fly Fusion (https://flyfusionforums.com/board/) or Washington Fly Fishing (http://www.washingtonflyfishing.com/forum/) and many others. Check them regularly, or even put requests in for gear and materials.

p.s. If you do have feathers and furs at your disposal, offering some up in trade will probably garner you some favourable responses.
