TOP 5 Easy Fly Patterns for Beginners (Simple Fly Tying Instructions)

Many on this channel are just discovering the sport and getting into fly fishing and fly tying. While there is a lot to learn, I figured I’d post some beginner-friendly patterns that are not only easy to tie but will also help you build up the skills used in more complex fly patterns. While these may be easy patterns, all of them are highly successful, and many are still staples in every fly box I make. So whether you’re a beginner or an advanced fly tyer, these are some you won’t want to miss.
Hope you enjoy, and if you want more beginner, intermediate, or advanced fly patterns, let me know in the comments and by dropping a like so I can gauge the interest in these videos.
Best,
Jesse R.

My husband loves to watch your fly tying videos. He is retired now but used to tie tarpon, snook, and shark flies for his teenage friends in Florida in the 1970s. He's been slowly collecting material and hooks to practice tying flies again. He thinks a lot of the flies would work great in Virginia (where we live) and invasive species in Florida. I noticed a bunch of fly rods showing up every now and then. When I asked, he said, "I am experimenting". 🤭😀
