Vastator 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2020 Has anyone tried one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Umpqua-Edgin-Tying-Hair-Snare/dp/B005R42QC4 They go for a little over $5 on the net but I have yet to see one in use. Was wondering what situations would it be useful for? Charles Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2020 Funny but it says right there in the ad it's "extremely popular" yet no one uses or has seen one. At least no yet. Looks like another one of those the is an answer looking for a problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Knapp 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2020 Never seen one before either. Looks like it would be great long handled hackle pliers. Might be worth a try for five bucks. Sometimes my long handle pliers are cumbersome on a small fly. I'm probably not going to order one but if I saw one at my local store, I'd throw it in the shopping basket.

You talked me into it, but I forgot my Amazon pass word, I'll get my wife to do it when she gets off the phone (she knows all the passwords). She's arguing with the post office about insurance on a carving that got wrecked twice in shipping. This could take a while. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
