I know what you mean. I used to be able to even tie the fly with no help but now in addition to the flip downs I also use a fly tying magnifier on my bench. The hardest part of this fly is getting the hook to the vise. Once it is tied you can grab the wings. I even put tippet on the ones I sold to my clients to help them out. Suprisingly enough I can use 6X on them but again I do a loop connection so the fly can wiggle.
I would love to hook up with you in 2006 and let you try one. easy to set the hook cause it is so tiny they suck it in.
Thank you Dryfly for the great topics and the nice words. Love chatting with you.[
