I was wondering the cost effectiveness of tying flies vs. buying them. I'm relatively new to fly fishing, but I've tied some flies and bought a lot more.
Flies can be bought for about $.89 each on flyshack where as the material to make the flies usually comes out to about $10 to $20 depending on what flies you're trying to make.
Out of one batch of material to make a fly (say, a pheasant tail nymph or an elk hair caddis), how many flies would I roughly be able to make?
