“When we started in tied flies (fly tying) is common to think of tying flies for all types of fish we imagine one days fishing, who knows when. Through the Internet we have contact with a huge amount of patterns in addition to its classical variations and are tempted to want to tie most of them. I do not think you go out and buy production equipment following this impulse, and since Mosqueiros beginners have asked me what materials to buy to start tying your own flies, I will talk about the answer I always gave them, which is what I did when I started tying my flies for fishing.”
(Quando iniciamos no atado de moscas (fly tying) é comum pensarmos em atar moscas para todos os tipos de peixe que imaginamos um dia pescar, sabe-se lá quando. Através da internet temos contato com uma gigantesca quantidade de patterns clássicos além das suas variações e somos tentados a quer atar a maioria deles. Não acho produtivo você sair comprando material seguindo esse impulso, e já que mosqueiros iniciantes tem me perguntado quais materiais comprar para começar atar suas próprias moscas, vou falar sobre a resposta que sempre dei a eles, que é o que eu fiz quando comecei a atar minhas moscas para pesca.)

Hello, SwitersB!
You are 4 centuries ahead of us in fly fishing. Our first fly fisherman is Paulo César (still alive), which began around 1940. And therefore we do not have much knowledge of the subject as you, who come from a European tradition of several centuries.
So I am so happy to see a Brazilian blog being mentioned by you. Even more because it is the blog of my friend Junior (a.k.a.”Joza).
Your blog is SUPERB. Congratulations!
Best regards
João Nicácio
