Great idea using different colors twisted together, should give it a nice reflective quality. Are you using the wires as an overwrap?

I have been using my two man sit in yak for 5 years and taken it to many different areas and types of water. As previously mentioned they are easy to transport, stable and as I usually sneak away and fish alone plenty of room for any and all equoipment and then some. Draws almost no water and stealthy, can creep right up on those pesky devils. The only problem I had was on the comfort level and not the yak but the life jacket. Hot and cumbersome, never fit or felt just right. Solved the problem by going to BassProShop and getting a Sospender unit. Worth every penny and makes it safer for you because it is comfortable and you will wear it.

My name is Mike and I'm from the Low country of South Carolina. Love to fish and tye and all things outdoors. Only been on this site a short while but really enjoying it. I have been fishing since a kid and love all aspects of it, and yes I do occasionally bait a hook.

Welcome to you and all the rest of us new guys. To get rid of the bait fisher handle keep posting until you graduate.

Jimmy, great job on the flys and putting them to good use. That hump head looks like an enemic peacock bass and is in the same family

Great idea for a new forum. I fish out of a kayak in the coastal waters and love it. Nothing like sneaking up on em.

I am sure that for those of us that fish the salt it will be a must buy, can't wait to see it all in print. Joe, I have enjoyed you sites for quite a while, well done all around

My wishes to one and all for a healthy and prosperous New Year.

Nice job, going to try that one soon. Great idea with the small tube over the hook point, saves the thread and the fingers.

Great job on all the flies shown. If you are not using a hair packer of some kind it is really difficult to get it full and hard. I think some of these would work in the salt too. Why not post the recipe.

Great job. They look classy enough to take out on New Years Eve.

Depending on how much material you have accumulated since you started to tie it may be best to start with a smaller desk top unit such as those made by Oasis. If you go to BT's site they show a unit with their Danvise. I have been using this setup for a year now and it's great.
