I have #28's, and I tied without a vise for years when I started. I'll have to give that a shot. My fingers might be too big, but we'll see.

I'm getting ready to tie some 32's for an upcoming club tying event at Cabalas. I'll take some photographs of the hook mounted in the vise, the bobbin and thread, etc. and post them for you. If my...
Yes, spade end (for snell knot) gold, barbed.
I tie flies on the Mustad #32's, so I am always interested in finding a good opportunity to buy them at a reasonable price. But scarcity drives the price up, even if it's just for collector's items....
Really like the colors of homes and businesses on Matlacha Island off t. Meyers, FL. Experimented with the bright colors and brush-stroke feather effects to create some visually different classic...
If he does, I'm very interested. Use them for my sculpins. My website has photos.
As far as the answer to Byron's question, 100% rope dubbing, all materials, size 28 through 19/0, in seconds, not minutes.
I'd like to trade you for one of those Chinchilla pelts also. How about some legal polar bear?
A twisted loop method was Polly Rosborough's method. Much more difficult and time-consuming than my rope-dub method.
I have a 17Wt. Cam Siegler and a #5 Abel, but I don't even think that will cast it.
Not to bore you with personal items, but I'm back after quite a round of major personal detours, including brain surgeries, up-rooting and re-locating 700 miles, then getting down-sized, and having...
Where do I send them?
"...not sure I'll make it back anytime soon.' I hear ya' there. I wouldn't be back too soon either. Four months should about do it.
I think this is a box of masterbrite, or similar enough to dub the same. Lot's of options dubbing with this material using the same basic technique.12047From small to large, smooth to shaggy.12048
Can you give me a website to purchase some, or some photos? I'll buy some and send you some samples. Rope dubbing is the way to go for impossible synthetics, straight from the bag to the hook with...
Anyone know how good the fishing is on this river, through Emmett and up to Horseshoe Bend? What do I need to know about it to fish it well?
Again,
What if we let the fish tell us what they like, which may be different from what they see.
How many field researchers do we have on this list?
Had the name wrong. Found a few bags in my stash.

I move this debate be relocated to the river, or lake, or creek, or bay...wherever.
I'm building a stash of flies with UV, fluorescent, and Phosphorescent features.
I'm intending on doing...
How many are you looking for?
They make the ribbon now without the lateral threads.
Hap, was the scud fluorescent UV, or just straight UV?
Hap- Thanks for the experience. Just what I am looking for.
One thing I'm not sure about yet is why Ice Dub 'UV' colors do not glow under UV light- at least most of them. Some of them are very...
Just took some photos. An interesting observation- Might be my point.
When I look at some of the fluorescent colors under UV, I seen a certain color,
but the camera sees a different color under...
Allan,
Thanks for the reply. And you are welcome on the DVD. I am anxious to hear back from you. Denny speaks very highly of your skills (and you). OOps...did I let the cat out of the bag?
