  1. thanks I forgot them for a while myself. Had zero in my box last summer. Will not happen again
  2. I had an issue with my HMH Standard holding any hook size 6 or larger. Called HMH and they had me send it back. Few weeks later I got it back with a brand new set of jaws. Call them. I'm sure they will make it right. edit. I guess I did it all via e-mail
  3. 18's and 20's thread, zlon, mallard and dubbing. Almost There Baetis
  4. deer wing woodchuck tail dubbing dry fly hackle #12 94840

  6. "the major difference being that the vise's head is a bit shorter and more compact" from the HMH site. The base looks smaller on the Spartan too.
  7. HMH Standard and old 2 screw Traveler. I do have all 3 jaws for the HMH. Both are fine tools.
  8. Hobby Lobby. Amazing amount of floss colors. All multi stand so you gotta separate. I have high hopes for the metallic stuff.
  9. Sacrilege for a Mainer but the Grey Ghost is a loser for me. Nothing casting and nothing trolling.
  10. Seems to me if you are going to be a fly tyer then you need to be able to tie a Catskill style dry. I'd start with a Wullf style hairwing. Kip is cheeper to screw up than wood duck. JMHO
  11. Fine book. I bought it way back when it 1st came out. Haven't opened it in years.
  12. Yup been there once. Bit of a drive from here. Mail ordered a few times too.
  13. Or you can buy the whole hackle farm. http://theriaultflies.com/chickenhackle.html
  14. Gotta disagree. Get a rotary, learn to use it, and you will never go back to fixed. Makes many tasks much easier. JMHO UMMV
  15. Matte white paper in an old picture frame.
  16. https://smile.amazon.com/SOLAREZ-Fly-Tie-Cure-Resin/dp/B00FL067UG/ref=sr_1_16?crid=NI5IEQOVJX9B&dchild=1&keywords=solarez+uv+cure+resin&qid=1589290650&sprefix=solare%2Caps%2C205&sr=8-16 Until I figure out which one I use most.
  17. Beaver, whitetail, black bear, duck and partridge are what I have in stuff that was harvested by friends. Borax and salt will cure anything. Just be sure you are vermin free before you put with your other stuff. I whine and beg for wood duck to all my friends come the season. A prime male woody will make a tier smile for months.
