Tip

Tip: Start with a basic vise; rotation is helpful but not essential, a stationary hold is enough to start

How to do it: Begin with a basic vise, recognising rotation helps but is not required

Mistake it fixes: Waiting for a rotary vise before starting to tie

Why it works: A basic vise holds hooks securely for tying. Rotation is a convenience, not a requirement for learning.

When it matters most: Fly tying, tools
