Not everyone has the same stuff and some might have some of the stuff but not others.

This is how I got my start Yukon',...... http://www.lakemichiganangler.com/tips/ ... ctions.htm

As the others are posting you'll see that there are a lot of sources for fly making components. You can't beat the satisfaction in catching fish on stuff that you make. It gets pretty addictive.

Almost forgot, Jon's little salmon tackle shop in Mexico has stuff also. Couldnt deal with a nicer guy either, BW

I got my banded mylar material from Siggs Riggs. My flies catch just as many as any pre- manufactured and I get more satisfaction out of something I made myself. Nice list of other places I am going to check them out. I have tried some other materials and am a big fly fisherman so I have tried other stuff but stick with the banded material its the easiest. They are too easy to tie not to try it yourself. Good Luck

Most of these Companys get thier mylar from Purple Taco, Id go straight there!!

[orangediablo]

just got mine from siggs rigs. shipping was quick too.

I use siggsrigs, Bigweenie and lakemichiganangler. SOme have colors that the other doesn't. All have been good to deal with.

I used siggs riggs once. Used Purple taco once. PT shipping was ridiculously slow.

But the next time I buy it will be from Big Weenie. he is of great help over the phone if you have questions. Plus he is very free about close up shots of his current flies. So my vote is Big Weenie.

Plus purple taco, nothing came labeled as to what color it was actually called. So it makes it hard to remember what components went in to each fly variety.

Big Weenie has a bunch of supplies that you can order online. I ordered the materials and tied some this past weekend for the first time. It's fairly easy to do and fun as well. Looking forward to catching some on the ones I tied myself. That will be a while since I'm on the east end of the lake and they salmon tend not to show up up mid summer. Good luck and enjoy.

If you need the Tubing and head material I can hook you up at a great price! Just hit me up on here and let me know how much you want and I will quote you a price! It will be cheaper then anyone else!

[phishwhich]

You can buy tubing at any local hardware just about. Just look in the plumbing area. Save on shipping. Stuff is dirt cheap. I called Big Weenie and they talked me all thru it and helped me alot.
