Why this kit was developed:
Wapsi's goal was to design a kit that focused on giving the starter a positive experience the first time at the vise. To accomplish this goal, they wrote a straightforward book with clear, step-by-step instructions, using materials geared to tie modern fly patterns.

Components:
