MuskyFlyGuy 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 I have not tied a fly since the musky swap. I need to tie something. The desk looks sad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 Mine looked just like that. 2 years ago when I moved everything from the shed to the house. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlaFly 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 It's a beautiful work station, but I deduce you aren't showing us everything... If you have that much thread, you must have tons of feathers and other stuff stored in tubs, or on another shelf somewhere. How neat is the rest of the stuff?

vicente 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 Very nice work station, someday I will have one like this, and my wife will be happy it's not strewn all over the coffee table. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 Did you make that shelving unit yourself? Please take another picture with the doors open ... I really like that assembly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rstaight 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 Nice, can't remember when mine looked that clean. Even when I haven't tied in awhile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Jack 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 That desk is a disaster area. You get to work now and make a good neat nice disorderly mess. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MuskyFlyGuy 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 Mike, I did not make the desk. It was made by Bob Wagner from River Wood Designs in Minnesota. Here is the picture you requested. FlaFly, After I got it, I found I needed more space so I had Bob build this cabinet. Drawer one is for feathers, drawer two is for bucktail, and drawer three is for flashabou.

David Parker 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2016 That's quite a strange subject for a fly tier to post on this forum.................need something to tie? Perhaps I missed something, for it sounds like you have lost your inspiration and interest in this wonderful art form, hobby, pastime, whatever you want to call it, that so many of us enjoy. Cabin fever perhaps? Fly boxes all full? Any new kids in the neighbourhood or a grandson/daughter who would love to learn to tie flies? Yes there are many times when I just take a break from the vice to do other things, for we all need to do that, but winter is prime time to sit at the vice and that nice work desk you have shown needs to look as if something's going on. Once we have open water here in Ontario, it's self explanatory where you'll find me spending much of my time and it won't be at the vice. For me personally, there certainly is more to tying than for fly pattern swaps. If I'm not tying a particular pattern, I hone my skills on something new that I have never tied before just to see if I can do it, or work on improving some of those patterns that were rejected by fish last summer. No being critical by any means, just trying to inspire you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
