Ah ha! Finally some flies the right way round :-)

Lovely ties. I may have to try some of that turkey twizzler - works rather well..

I tried doing a whip finish round a wing-post today. I nearly broke my neck twisting it round so the whole thing looked right while I was doing it. Is there an obvious simple way? Or do I just have to get over it and learn how?

My vice won't twist anywhere useful btw - it's a C&F marco polo job..

Fantastic flies, bet you cant wait to see a big gaping mouth sipping them off the top.
Great stuff and very traditional
Mike.
