Fly tying for beginner

[bigboy5522]

Hello im thinking of starting to tie my own flies. I am interested in tying glo bugs, stoneflies nymphs, caddis nymphs etc. What tools are essential?
Is a kit worth it? I am a beginner and do not want to spend $200 just to start out. I have never tried tying and always bought my flies. I know I can find tutorials of patterns on youtube but im not sure where to start. I was looking at the Griffin Superior 2A Fine Point Vise for $50 and i was wondering if anyone has tried this vise and how is it? Thank you
