What do you use the bead chain sinkers for? How do you rig them?

A terrible, wonderful thing happened to me this week: My brother in law gave me a cheap vise and bobbin a few months ago and then for my birthday my wife and friends got me a bunch of feathers and hooks and wires and bits of string. Part of it came from kits on the internet and part of it came from the wife going down to the local fly shop and accosting all the greybeards. Exciting times! I have tied three flies in my life, not including san juan worms, so i am very excited to be able to jump in headfirst and make a bunch of horrible useless garbage for a few weeks before i start turning out serviceable flies. It all came with a couple of books and instruction manuals, but is there anybody on youtube who is reliable for decent fly tying basics?

my new year's resolution was i went to a fly shop that had a $5 thing of mystery flies and apparently i was the only person who had ever bought one that wasn't smart enough to hold it up to the light to see if i could get a good idea of which flies were in the lil mystery tub. the important thing is that it wasn't all zebra midges, and the other important thing is that the fly shop had that orvis case that you can use to pre-tie a bunch of double droppers. The guy even joked with me that the best place to tie up flies was on your couch the night before, as far away from the water conditions as possible. Just throw a hares ear with a zebra nymph on the end, how hard could it be?? At some point this year I would like to learn how to tie a bead head prince nymph, though, so if you guys have a video you like that helps me do that i'd be much obliged
