So many variable answers to this. I tied flies with no bobbin for years. I whip finished by hand for years. The list goes on.
I had to switch to tools because for years I worked in the oil industry and my hands got so rough I would break thread on my Callouses. That and my hands are large enough, I am sure there are people happy I'm not their Proctologist! 🤣😂.
Some tools are designed to catch you and I because they are shiny. Some tools are practical and some are a little of both.
As we get more into whatever a Hobby may be to us, we decide "Do we want to own better tools?"
"What is a "Better tool?"
To me I have to use bowling or Golf to answer this.
As we get better at what we do, we begin to look up from our tools, either a Ball, a Driver or in this case a half hitch/hair stacker tool. My Bic pen tube has served me well over the years. After tying for 50+ years, I have done DIY for decades, but more recently I have been upgrading my tools. Most of what I use are "Art,," in and of themselves. Why? Why does a Bowler buy his own ball, or a Golfer spend $1G+ on a driver?
We do because we take as much pride in our gear as we do in our tools. Does this tool qualify as Art? I think so. Remember before you get going with Rembrandt jokes, art is very "Subjective!"
I like the look of it and that is the first hurdle. Somebody was puffing on a Hookah one day and went..."Wow man! This fixes everything...almost maaan! 😀
Seriously, if it was blown glass, it would be called "Art."
Good job highlighting it, I saw it in your earlier show when you hunted at it.
Christmas is coming, you can explain to your friends how ""My wife was spoiling me!"
Nobody will be any the wiser. Now if they could fit a bobbin in there as part of the whole thing, what a tool that would be.
Anyway I think I may have talk myself into one of these. I know it may be a little early, but Merry Christmas to all of you. Stay safe and DO NOT! Use it for that! 😂🤣
Love those. And beeing transparent is so nice.
So I got mine a week before Christmas. I was hoping to find the set, user friendly and I did! I have large hands but these tools fit so comfortably in hand, that I wish everyone made them!
I don't think the price will hurt much after you get it figured out! Well made, attractive and one of the nicest tools for my dollar. Glad I took the plunge, you will be as well. I am in Canada I have no benefit from a positive review.
This is the coolest thing I've ever used I got mine last week what a game charger for me shared with a bunch of people
hello, I love all your videos ; I live in France , fly fisherman since a long time and it is always difficult to find new products in France 😂
Would love to start tying bigger Pike flies! I’ll have to take a look at MN Fly tool!
I already do all of that stuff with a variety or Rube Goldberg concoctions. They aren't all in one, but I like to improvise, alternate materials etc .
Definitely have to get both Definitely spoport mn small business thanks for sharing this
Been using these for a while now, they are great!!
Thanks👍
Been making a few copies of the dead fly on my wood lathe half hitch on one side and hair stacked and packer on the other. But this looks more refined and that slick factor is $
Glad someone who could fill this need has the ability to bring it to market for others
100% agree. I honestly thought with the way DeadFly left things completely open, someone would step in and start rolling with it......but no one did!
Shit I’ll make and sell them through Elevate Fly Fishing if there is still a market for them
I got one as a gift and really like it. Being able to see through the acrylic tool is great.
I never knew how good it is to be able to see through a tool like this.
It’s great. I didn’t know about the hair packer attachment. I need to get one.
That's awesome my friend. I really appreciate the reverse tie feature
You are right to mention price. $48 is completely out of line. I expected you to say 20 and that would still be high but acceptable.
When I first started tying in the 70’s, I used the end of a bic pen as a half hitch tool.
Luckily I was able to get a pair before they were sold out. Love it. Great video thanks for sharing.
Nice!!
Haha....I thought at first you forgot to put away your Vape.😅😅😅😅
Very cool tool..Might need both
Sounds great, thanks, Brian
Might look into getting the larger version for some of the muskie flies I occasionally tie, still got that og wood one and it gets the job done for most of my tying.
4in. PVC, WATER BALLOON CAP FOR HOSE. X2 . GRIP FOAM WRAP.
MAKE A FEW, CUT TIPS TO SIZE. $5
Ordered the set! Buy once, cry once. I'd still pick up a dead fly hair packer if given the chance. I tried the fugly packers and they just weren't very ergonomic and were awkward. People will bitch about the price, but the probability of these being available in 5 years is a very low statistic. Hopefully the MN fly tool guys find some success with these.
I was gonna say... prolly picked it up at the smoke shop
😉
Very cool looking tool! I plan on checking them out very soon.
That is awesome that you are giving it away. But I don't have Instagram sadly 😢
Can it call ducks too? Thanks for sharing!
Great review. I think that seeing through to the knot is a major perk.
Exxxxactly!
the best on the market!
👍👍👍
Need me one of those!
Cool, thanks for the review
It really is cool. Function and Style are my jam.
$48.00..???? This is what's wrong with the fly tying industry. Ridiculous prices for tools and materials that can be substituted easily with cheap household items. A spent Bic pen does the same thing this does.
higher price= better quality
If you know someone with a 3d printer you could go that route. Or if you can get your hands on a cylinder of plastic you could shave and drill out the openings and contours you need for what you want to do.
You do what you have to do. No body is holding a gun to your head. I like tying tool and a big sucker for them.
People will spend $20 to save $5! Or if they don't want to spend the money they downplay the tool. There are a couple of tools I will not use, before I bought this set I used a Bic Pen for 35 years. After seeing this and speaking to the machinist who makes them, I was happy to get them and even happier to use them.
I agree with you @@dominiqueleblanc2193 if you own a vice, I know a fellow who uses a set of Vice Grips instead. I will not harrass anyone who likes an alternative tool. I like a nice fitting set of tools and I see you do as well. Take care from Canada! Merry Christmas!!
I used my hands or the slide part of mt brass hair stacker lol... used to use an ink pen tube
Damn measuring in bananas…. Can we have that in metric please? 😊
looks like a great product, they should have a sale
Bin waiting for this tool like for u to show it off keep up the good work
Thank you!
I need a half hitch tool very badly, I’ve got to buy one of these now
Link in the description!
Awesome product just ordered one.
👍👍👍
Thank you but I think I will stay with a straw and a wooden dowel with a hole drilled into the end and save $100
I don't half hitch flies, and if I need to pack hair I'm reaching for the Pat Cohen tool. For me this seems like several ok tools all in one, and that's not my style. Call it the Alton Brown in me- but multi tools don't have a place on my bench.
I'm betting you'll STILL get questions about your half-hitch tool. The difference is you'll be able to provide a link to buy it. The hair packer accessory is a nice touch.
For sure!! I have answered DOZENS of emails and messages telling people they can't get the tool they are looking for.....which sucks.
If my fly tying skill advances beyond “rank amateur” stage I am getting one!
Can do the same with a Biro pen home made tool.
Dial caliper.
I'm here to win the fly from the last video
Is that chunk of plastic really wortj $50? A huge part of fly tying imo is innovation and being resourceful. So many things could easily substitute that $50 tube.
C’mon, an expert fly tyer like you doesn’t need such a tool, you can easily do the half-hitches by hand.
You are kidding right?
awful annoying music
Another useless product you can do without very easily
