    Default If you only had 3 tying materials for life...

    At your disposal for a life time what would they be? Not including tying thread.

    Hmmm, the best way to answer this one would first be to decide what single "go to" fly pattern you could only carry, type of fish you're going after, and the water conditions. Assuming we're talking Rainbows fished in lakes my choice of fly would be the good old Woolly Bugger. Therefore your three materials would be (colors to match);

    1. Marabou
    2. Chenille
    3. Saddle Hackle
