Fly Tying Tips for All

[@dominiqueleblanc2193]

Love those storage boxes. Have to get some.

[@leemowers9395]

Thanks for the tips Collin, I have two 2x3 inch trays bought from the sewing store (pins and needles ) that I store hooks and flies in on my bench.

Sounds great!

[@chili1593]

Good ideas thanks

[@talon769]

All good stuff! Well done, sir!

I use alligator clips attached to straight pins for drying flies. Organizing my thread, I built a 3 tier wooden steps surrounded by cardboard (18"x 4"x 4") Why buy when building your own is really cheap & easy.

Great video. Meiho is one of most famous tackle box/case manufacturer in Japan and almost all fisherman in Japan does own one or two of their cases. Very high quality and reliable. “May” “Ho” is more a close way to pronounce.

[@newflyfisher]

Thanks Ken, appreciate the feedback on pronunciation. Wasn't sure how it was done!

That round magnet on a pole is also very useful if you are doing (or having someone else doing it) work on your house like roofing or shingling. Screws or nails get dropped all over the place, & the same magnet is great for cleaning up around the work area.

Good tips there mate, regards from Wales

Thanks for watching!

For those that live in a house those Meiho boxes are great. However for those of us that live in motor home where space is severely limited zippered plastic bags seem to work the best, very little wasted space. In that box probably about 80-90% of the space is filled with air and they're really, really cheat, like about a nickel a bag US. Keep the good stuff coming guys

Those boxes are copies of the Gamakatsu slit foam boxes or they produce them for Gama,but the Gama's are slightly larger and cheaper. I keep all my beads,hooks,etc. in Craft Mates Bead Organizers,the lids have a locking mechanism.

I use pill boxs and tool boxes from a tool shop.

Some nice tips. I also tie on a tv tray while watching TV. One question. Is that Mr Potato head gender neutral? Sorry, couldn't resist. Great video.

[@newflyfisher]

No, that Mr. Potato head is all man....i guess!

[@carminealfano4878]

Hot take: go to Michaels with a $5 bill and you're good to go.

[@jamesmccreery250]

I always stop there for materials before I go buy hooks at the fly shop. Most materials we tie with are the same as craft supplies, but somehow, the price is not similar.

[@MaxMeridius0920]

Great tips! Way to rock the Mr Potato head! Hah

[@newflyfisher]

Great gift from a fishing friend...who doesn't like Mr. Potato Head?!

[@imeach2897]

Cancel culture has spoken It's now Potato Head No Mr, No Mrs No sense unfortunately

[@muskiedave7197]

You are way to organized for me. I enjoy the total chaos that I create when tying flies. Of course, I do misplace a few things.

[@dangaver9845]

Not impressed.
