Post by: Aneoakleaf on February 15, 2010, 10:31:08 PM: I probably spelled it wrong :chuckle: :chuckle: It's a fly vice that rotates while you tie the fly. I got Smokey one for our annaversary next week. He doesn't know yet so...shhheeee!
He's wanted one for a love time but they cost almost 4oo.oo. So I got one at the Sportsmans show in portland last weekend! I want to give it to him now....but I must wait till the 20th! :IBCOOL:

And he was really surprised ( I told him it was a box of candy sence I ate all his Valentines candy.)..So, He has taken one class from John at The Black Herron Fly shop in Longview and spent one evening working with it. Said " I'm Learning"
