YouTube has great instructional videos. Orvis channel especially in regards to everything. Learn the blood knot and the surgeons knot, I use those the most when building leaders. Also good to be familiar with the life cycle of mayfly's from larvae to adult. When there is a hatch going on and if they are not rising its good to know the stages before they are an adult, most likely that is what they are eating. Visit your local fly shop for more tips etc...The knots are a pain in the butt, they take patience and after awhile you will be zooming through them. Welcome to fly fishing!!
