As mentioned, stay away from "fly fishing" specialty hooks and try something a bit more generic like the Mustad 3399 or 3366 for your patterns. Other than stuff you can find at most craft stores (foam, glass beads, etc.), you will find that most locations have close to the same prices for fly tying materials, although there are some online vendors such as Fly Tyer's Dungeon that has good rates on knock-off materials.
