Looks like a nice vise .



Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was
cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time.
On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words,
and some of the words are theirs.

 Worth $90 for a travel/stream side vise?  I have a Griffen Patriot and HMH for the bench already so this would be a true traveler.

Do you do allot of streamside tying Keith ?   I have a travel vice but haven't used it on the streamside yet.

 Thinking about it.

I attended a lecture talking about matching the hatch stream side and it made sense.

Also I travel a lot for work and would kill time in the hotel....the maid may not like it though.

I could see how it has it's benefits . As far as the maid just don't be tying to many hair bugs . She might think some kinky business is going on Surprised

Watched a video on the legend Lee Wulff tying streamside with no vise . I can only imagine how my flies would turn out if if I even attempted that . Eek!

 I've travelled with the old Thompson Model A a few times and tied stream side or at the campground. A pedestal would have been handy.  I'd carry a thin piece of wood and an extra c-clamp to fasten it to whatever.  I'd also put together a few ziplocs of materials and a couple tools.   The best part of tying outdoors is the light.  You can really see, which is helpful as we get older, unless it's dark. The wind can be a pain.

I tied flies in the car with the vise set on the steering wheel. Or riverside on a branch.  When you run out of the one fly that works, having a vise is amazing.


Some go to church and think about fishing, others go fishing and think about God.

Tried resizing these to 550w.  Not sure if I was able to get the URL thing on the insert image right.  Here are Jack and I putting together a few flies at a campground in Colorado near the Cache La Poudre river in Colorado.  I've usually brought stuff along on trips because I didn't know what I would need and was too lazy to tie ahead of time.
