oatka 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2010 head out to your local fly shop, sit down with their demo vises and tie a few flies. pick the one that is BEST for YOU. I agree with all he said. I have 5 vises at my house and when I inherited 2 nice ones recently, it wasn't until I started tying with them that I was able to form an opinion on which I liked best. In fact, the one that looks nicer isn't the one I prefer. test out a bunch, see how you like them. some vises i think have a crowded area to tighten the hook down. but, there's more to a vise than that.

Jaydub 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2010 There is no one answer. For some it's a LAW for others it's an inexpensive fixed head. Let's start with your budget and whether or not you want inline rotary. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carleton County Nick 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2010 I'm brand new here (first post) but I use a Dan Vice. I have not had trouble holding anything up to a 22 yet and I love it. It's on the cheaper end too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
