Hi, I just began tying flys and I'm looking for easy to tie and effective flies for all types of fish. so if you have any good easy to tie flies wet or dry please leave a comment below. have a nice day and good fishing.
New to fly tying!
The forums are very quiet
The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF form is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Tie a Woolly Bugger
Carter,
Depending on your fishing, I'd say that a Woolly Bugger is about the best and most universal fly you can tie. We even have the instructions for the perfect one! Check it out here:

If you want a dry fly that works in many situations, look at the CDC&Elk. It's a great all round fly and easy to tie:
