While Orvis was having it’s Orvis Days in Norcross, Georgia, I was actually able to sample the 1554 and a regular Fat Tire beer. The 1554 was fantastic and on May 11th Fat Tire was suppose to be released in Atlanta as far as I know. Great Beer!!!
Neal- Thanks for the finger “of flies”. No really those are great just as all the patterns you are tying. As someone who has just started really getting into it I love to see yours as well as the other guys flys.
Cole had a good link to a tying light- What light do you use????Neal- What’s the deal with those sexy lightning bugs- Since you know my address I was wondering why I haven’t received my supply.
Really you are a fantastic tyer.
Ok- Those are the best lighting bugs i have seen. I would like 3 or 4 of those if you can spare them- Let me know.

Thanks TimStill speaking on the renzetti traveler. I attended a fly tying class and actually got to know how to work the vise better. I put a clamp version in the base plate of my renzetti traveler and have the height I need now. I didn’t have the vise adjusted very good at first, but after a few people looked at it I can work with it fine. I would like to get a Dyna king cuda- but I have to buy more rods.
As a newbie to the site and to fly tying I am really trying to hone in my equipment. I currently own the Renzetti Traveler, but in my opinion it seems to small and not adjustable enough to add anything to it. The bodkin holder has to be pushed away for me to tie. It looks great and I bought it because of looks before I really investagated what I personally need. No one mentioned Regal vise and I have tied on one of those. The clamping lever for the jaws has the power of a bull and it seems ok- but I am not satisfied with either vise. I have tied on a dyna king baracuda for a short while and really thought it was smooth and seem to be adjustable in any way. Price seems a bit high, but engineering cost money. Any opinion will help me.
Steve, I am a newbie myself as of today so hopefully we will both be able to increase our knowledge and just get to see some great pictures of giant fish. That redfish tail is great!!!!
