Sweet!!! That's a pretty cool idea.

Okay. I just rushed out and bought one. I've been looking for this sort of thing for some time. I hope the weight is negligible. It's got to be better the the pair of vice grips I thought I was going to have to settle for. Thanks for the heads up!

it isn't heavy at all. if you are all ultra light guy then it may be a huge problem. I think it weighs about 2 ounces...lol

Great looking bit of kit. I've not learned to do this properly yet but I've watched other with awe a few times. Superb if you know what you're doing I'm sure.

the vise jaws open when you unthread the neck. then you put a hook in it, then procede to tie your flies....
