  3. peter, that,s how the pros hold a fish and we all want to be like the pros.lol.
  4. hi cream, nice fly. how long did it take you to unscrew that gill from the water...he looks like he has buckteeth, lol.
  5. flygirl, after thinking a little more, it,s probably no stiffer than the plstic in regular worms and like you say maybe more attractive to the fish....i will give it a ty.. thanks.
  6. hi flygirl, just asking but isn,t braided materials too stiff..i don,t have much experience with braided stuff but it always appeared stiff...thanks
  7. yup, that,s me porn and fantasies, lol.
  8. sa ltybum, i love your jurassic vice and there is nothing that holds like vise-grips. i can,t weld like you so what i did was to remove the adjusting bolt in back and replace it with a 3" piece of all-thread by 5/16" so that i could mount the vise-grip onto another extra fly vise base that i have that is designed for a 3/8 rod but holds this 5/16" rod just as well.. i grip the large hooks that i use at the barb of the hook which keeps the hook from rotating and VERY secure...i could have just as easily attachd the bolt with the visegrip to my bench.
  9. is anyone using this vise at all...maybe as a paperweight.lol.
  10. these vises were aimed at the salt water market and i was curious if they were catching on and if not, why not...thanks.
  11. hi kenduardo,.i wouldn,t be too concerned...it,s just a little rambling from a old fool, who,s getting older and dummer by the minute.
  12. i,m old fashion...i just thinks it rude to tell another person how to run their own business unless they ask for suggestions..
  13. the answer is very simple...just start your own fly tying site...you could put this site out of business in a month or two..
  14. mcfly..if it,s good enough to fish with it,s perfect. lol..
  15. sandfly, you know crayfish eat other crayfish...so don,t be too surprised when you open that box someday and see only one giant fat crayfish. lol...real nice tyes for sure.
  16. really well done..both the fly and the video.
  17. they are big into rod building components too..
  18. flymanaj, at first i thought that was a booger on your finger. lol.
  19. crappie and bluegill...it dosn,t get any better
  20. killer frog, you ain,t hooked ,you been gaffed...really nice work!
  21. caloosa bug, it looks pretty good to me...put a short deer tail on it and you pretty much re invented the henshall bug.
  22. hi saltydog,i,ve never seen a feather like that...looks like 80% fluff and 20% barbed at the black tip..platypus maybe lol..thanks for showing it.
  23. hi mike, i don,t know if you want to put more time into the scm but you may want to try an e-poxy coat or two...the added weight may keep the belly down, make casting better, and add a little shine to attract fish...just a thought.
