Reviving the lost art of the classic fly. Friday, December 12, 2014. In hand vs In the vise. I tried a little streamer experiment last night varying tying technique for the whole fly and one component of the fly. In hand vs in the vise - which is which? I'll admit now that I only tied one fly last night, the other had been sitting on my bench for quite a while, and in a desperate need for a fly tying fix, with limited time to do so, I knocked out a replica of the already tied fly. It's fairly well known ...
