I didn't realize that tying could be just as addictive (and more expensive) than the fishing itself. The GF got me a vise and starter kit for xmas and I've been spending a lot of time on it since then. Pretty damn frustrating at first but it's starting to get to the point where it's relaxing zone out time. I'm sure some of you guys on here must be starting to stock up for the season.
I'll start out with one from tonight. Rabbit strip tail and tri color maribou head. It still needs eyes, I'm waiting on batteries for my UV light so for now this is how it sits. One of our local guides is a pretty big fan of this color combo, especially on bright days so I figured I'd tie some stuff up and give it a shot.
