I tied commercially for year in fact that what paid 90% of my college. My suggestion is to get good at trying flies others hate to tie. I tied thousands of turks triantulas, comparaduns and parachute mayflies of all shades and sizes. Knowing how to spin deerhair and having a quality vise and equiptment is key. It also wouldn't hurt to have a good commercial tier take you under his wing and tech you some of the techniques that make your work consistant and of high detailed quality.Good luck to you have fun.
