Fly Tying Tools
Build a fly tying bench around the tools you need
Set up the hook and materials first
Choose a vise for the bench and the hooks you use. Then list what the first pattern needs for thread, feathers and other materials. Most cased hand-tool kits here cover tools only. Add the vise and pattern supplies separately.
Choose core tools for a bare bench
The Loon Core contains the all-purpose bobbin and scissors, bodkin, hackle pliers and whip finisher. The Kingfisher Intro covers thread setup with a bobbin and threader, plus basic scissors and finishing tools. Compare the exact contents against the gaps in your own setup.
Choose expansion tools for a working bench
The Loon Accessory adds a spinner, tweezers, brush and medium stacker plus a Vise Pawn. The Kingfisher Comprehensive combines two scissor profiles with a spinner and stacker. Choose based on which jobs you want to add, and check what the case actually holds.
