Are you for real? You cannot call this fly tying. These are lures not flies. Where is the artistic nature of a beautiful salmon fly or even classic wet/dry fly. These things belong on a baicasting set up
But I do agree. This is a really simple idea, I mean who wouldn't be able to take some tinsel off their Christmas tree & hot glue it to a hook then when your all done ya just gotta melt it..
However I will admit, I will probably buy a couple colors of tinsel from the store next christmas to add a little more variety to my lures/flies.... Maybe
New State of the Art Number One Best in the World Better than all the Rest Catch the Most Fish Exclusively by "Special Process That Even Homer Simpson Can Use" lol
Everyone who makes a fishing lure says the same thing ha, well except the homer simpson part...
The vise was created by Norm Norlander, a mechanical engineer who has several Patents for it. Others try to copy some of the functions, but because of Norm's Patents they have hands that turn like a meat grinder.
The Nor-Vise is available with FREE NEW Fly Tying Materials through my shop through the NEWFLIES Network channel link for NEWFLIES products.
Your genius, i live in Serbia and started fly fishing few months ago. In my country people often try from nothing to make something, but your flies are superb because they don't cost a lot and even a new fly tier can make them.
One question. Did you made your vise by your self, and if you did it how? Thanks in advance! ;)
A couple cents for the materials - chemically sharpened hooks run about $.10 (unless you want to pay for the high dollar magazine ad branded ones, which ain't no better). Then you need vice, tools, etc.....
No, not smart. Just not afraid to try something new or different to tie with, even if it doesn't work and I have to just throw it in the trash can, like about 40% of experimental flies tied.

That is what these videos are about, being creative. Anyone can create a great new fly pattern or update an older pattern with newer materials.
