Not vice.
A VISE grips a hook;
A vice grips you.
Carry on.
It's VISE
Not vice.
A VISE grips a hook;
A vice grips you.
Carry on.
I have a fly tying vise and a fly tying vice.
I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.
Luckily I have no "vices".....Originally Posted by rainbowchaser
I've got all kinds of vices, only one vise though. Eh, what you gonna do?
Incorrect. Don't believe me? Check Merriam-Webster, OED, or any other decent dictionary. On the other side of the Atlantice "vice" is the more common usage.
My vice is coca cola, I have many vises including 4 of the fly tying type. In history it was only a short time ago that dictionaries were made. Before that time phonics and communication not spelling were the rule. My thought is that communication should still be the rule.
Now lets get back to fishing.

Thank you for the visdom.
Thanks STEVEN for the advice or is it advise?
What a waste of space---cant you think of something better. I know dull afternoon nothing else to do.
With all this idle time and cabin fever maybe all of us should brush up on our spelling, grammar and typing. Have a productive day.
