Totally agree, been tying for many years and as Jim, I can now tie pretty much anything, but we are talking $1,000. of material accumulated.
If you enjoy it, it is worth it, it brings out the creativity side also, but no way is it cheaper.
Great thing is, I take my stuff (small portions of everything) with me. I do fly tying shows so I am pretty mobile. So, I take it camping and fishing, because it is ALWAYS the one fly you only have ONE of that they want, and that last big fish just took it.
So it is on the spot, any time, any where.
