So I bought my husband a fly tying vice and tools for Xmas. I was wondering if there is a preferred supply store that anyone uses. Also, is there like a massive book of fly patterns? Thanks all!

Getting to be that time of year. I've been tying up my springtime favorites for early season in North Park.
Tungsten Head Chironomids. My favorite fly for high lakes.

Should be tied using Pine Squirrel but I used Rabbit here.  Slumpbuster by GhostCreekMine, on Flickr
