Davie Mcphail says rub the bobbin on the bridge of your nose where your glasses would sit to get rid of a squeaky bobbin

Most bead packages have size hook to use on .

[@HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy]

how are those biots so big? all that i've ever seen are like 1/4th that size!

I used to not care for Tom. I first started watching his videos and thought he kinda seemed like an impatient crabby kinda guy who's probably way too competitive then I realized I'm probably right and now I think he's awesome 😆

I've been using turkey biots---a big pain.

An hour plus to tie a Copper John ! I don’t think so.....

[@Flies_the_limit]

Its not a speed tie video. There's lots of information in this video regarding its origins . It's interesting. Keep in mind this is a live recording and he's answering questiona.
