    Default Fly Drying rack

    Hi guys and gals.

    Wondered what you use to set your finished flies on to dry?
    This is what I use. Just a couple of dowels and some beadchain.

    That is a good idea Jim.

    I just rest mine on the edges of one of my plastic bins.

    Looks like I will copy your idea.

    Saw somebody that was using a venetian blind as a rack. Cool.

    That would be a good idea as well.

    I tried to use some telephone poles and line from the son and my train diorama and the wife played the veto card.

    Yup
    If it takes more than a minute to tie i wont use em for clients

    steelhead flies are a different story though theyr speeciaal

    besides i get emotionally attached to them if they take to long and then i wont fish em for fear of having to tie more

    cheers

    Default I hear ya brother

    I know what you mean.
    Flies I tie for myself now are either 2 minute bunny or marabou something or others.
    Or I don't care how long this takes me to tie it is going to kick butt and steelhead are worth it.

    See ya out there one day.
