    I also have one of those test clips on my fishing vest to hold flies especially those size 24 and smaller flies while tying them to the tippet. Helps prevent me from dropping the darn flie. Also helps me keep my fat fingers a way from the eye while threading tippet through it. ..... yeah, I have the test clip attached to a zinger so I can't loose it and the fly.

    Drilled hole at angle. Made a loop using the butt end of a used leader with a simple overhand knot. Glued the knot with Dave's fleximent though any glue would have worked.
