Oh Quidditch!
You have posted pix of some of the most beautiful looking flies - and the cutest little mousy patterns - I had to show them to my daughter (and she doesn't even fish!). I don't really fly fish, at least not yet . . . done Tye-dying, not fly-tying.
I highly respect any opinion you'd share regarding flies, fly tying, fly fishing. And you've landed the Crap-load to prove it works!
I've seen a number of "fly tying" setups on KSL - but I'd guess w/o really knowing what's in them - it'd be hard to judge their bargain/value ??? Could just be one of those cheap kits folks got frustrated with.
So ya'll agree on a better vise. What vise would you experts recommend? And why? And how much?
I have a box of bits from my Dad - feathers, and fur mostly. Don't think there's much for hardware - sure he had some and it ended up in a different box and got shucked away as "unknown tools".
Blue's a good Musky Color! Big bad and dark!
Plus Blues on the Bass - now you're talking (but I don't mean fish this time!
