Default Recommendations for a GOOD tube fly vise



Bought a tube fly head for my Renzetti and I'm not a happy camper.
The Rezentti uses a mandrel with collet to hold the tube in place plus
a small threaded collar that is tightened against the end of the tube
to hold it in place. It doesn't. Pull on some thread to tighten down
and the whole affair spins. The little collar only holds it tight for
a short while. I spend too much time fighting against a spinning fly
(and no, I'm not using deehair).

Definitely need a better one -- thinking about HMH.
