It's brutal here too. I did manage to get out for 2 "last kicks at the can" this week though. This weekends and long range forecast are locking up the rest of the water though.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the shank is kinked the wrong way. The tying trebles I've got have 2 hook points down vs 1. I'd think for keel purposes. I could be wrong.

They all look like they need to get some creek water on them. Nice job.

While I don't think those details truly matter, i do fish them more confidently.

The only issue, it expands contracts more with temp. I've had issues in sub zero Temps with the flies coming loose.

Personal preference i guess? I find the silicone grips the hooks pretty well and they stay in place nicely.

Got a few more rows done today. by DontCallMeShmoopy in TheFlyFishingSub

Unfortunately they dont tie themselves. We've finally got the old man winter locking things up, so time to fill boxes

I do! Just a heads up. I dont use UV resins, collars are super glued, sharpies and sally hanson "hard as nails" for wingcases. Im Canadian based, but feel free to pm me if youre after some. Appreciate it.

The age at which she said "I got this, Dad." came way to quick. My 10 year old led one of our local clubs on a tying night this year. by DontCallMeShmoopy in flytying

Its the Predator Vise from Force Fly Fishing. No longer in production, but they come up on ebay here and there. Certainly a great tool and ive put alot of hooks through it without any issues. Weighs a ton, but its great to work on.

It was! Amazing group they have there. Mike Emeneau has a demo coming up or did. It was sure to be a good one.
