Fly Tying Checklist

Enough Tools? The more expensive kits are expensive for a reason...more tools, usually. Make sure that whatever kit you get has, first and foremost, a good vise and a few good, high quality tools.
Kit For a Beginner? If so, find a kit that has a high-quality and usable vise. It's better to have limited fly tying materials and a good vise, than vice versa. A quality vise is everything when tying flies. If the vise stinks, it will never be enjoyable to tie your own flies.
Don't Forget The Book! Some of the fly tying kits come with decent books full of patterns and how-to guides. Others, however, don't. If you're buying a kit for a new tyer, it never hurts to pick up a book about fly tying. Don't get an advanced book....get an inexpensive book targeted at beginners.
Let There Be Light! Before even buying a fly tying kit, make sure you have a place to use it. First and foremost, the area must be well-lit. Tying flies in the dark is a recipe for eye-strain and disasterous fly patterns.
