  1. Streamer fishing is fishing the top of the food chain.
  2. I really like that!!!!!
  3. From a different point of view. When I design flies for commercial use (selling) durability is important. I use a lot of wire ribbing, mono ribbing, and intentional application of materials to protect the thread. Its not uncommon for a zonker to be shaved clean of fur and still catch fish on the fly. But if some one is paying 3 to 5 dollars for a fly It should not come apart ofter 3 or 4 fish. IMHO That is also why I carry a hook file.
  4. Wow that is a good looking 1964 Id hang on to that one!!!
  5. HMH jaws http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwZSA_7ifm0\ Hmh Rotation
  6. 40 bucks! what!!!! thats insane!! HMH would do it for FREEEEEE Now that is a solid vise! Even if the damage is from improper use on the user's part? With no questions asked? I had one vise that I sold that was under "improper use" HMH did repair the vise at no cost but they did have a conversation with the tyer that 4/0 should be in the mag jaws not the omni jaws. Questions asked, yea but they did fix it.
  7. Agreed on the renzitti being horribly cramped. As far as the indexer Ive used it and had no use for it all.
  8. Don't magnets get weaker time and use?
  9. It does have more room. But I think Rens jaws are better quality. Dyna's new steel is softer thus the reason for the change in there warranty. They only offer a 2 year warranty on them now.
  10. 40 bucks! what!!!! thats insane!! HMH would do it for FREEEEEE Now that is a solid vise!
  11. Dustin Id put it in a box and on a shelf as a memory of how you started. Plus Come Monday...It will be alright! Maybe Tuesday? You do not need it any more!
  12. What is the difference between a "lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects", "please contact us with in 5 days of manufacturer defect", "a life time warranty on workmanship but only a 2 year warranty on the jaws" ( sorry but that is BS!) and a full lifetime guarantee + great customer service?
  13. Well then the zetti is not for you. Great dry fly, small streamer,nymph vise. You will be happier with the peak. But it has disadvantages mostly due to its bulky size and lack of working space. Look in to HMH or Dynaking. I also recommend that you FULLY explore the warranties of the vises.
  14. Yea I think I sent you size 26 to 32 dry flies.
