RickZieger 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2024 Try to tie cleaner flies. Also I have been trying to use less thread at the start of the fly, so I don't have to cut thread off at the back of the wrap. Less stuff going to the dump. Rick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruce Derington 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2024 I was just messing with DarrellP, my goal is to become more active, I’ve gained 20+ lbs since retiring Beside that, try to keep a cleaner tying area, when I look at my bench I don’t get inspired to tie, can’t find what I’m looking for Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
