Default Equipment tips


Hey,
I'm no expert but these things work for me. I have a pair of magnifiers
that attach to the bill of my hat. I can flip them down for small work.
I can wear my sunglasses and still flip the mag down. I just got a set
of threaders to help manage the midges. I store several on a threader
so I can just put that tiney tippet through the treader and pull a
midge on it. Then it is just a question of managing the knot. Hope this
helps,frogge.

I'll ditto frogge suggestions.
I also have the flip-down magnifiers on my hat and found them to be
very useful. I also use the Scientific Anglers threaders for threading the
tippet
through hooks of the fly.
Others goodies are; amber Polaroid sun glasses with a chum attachment to go
around my neck. Sunscreen/skin lotion, chapstick. Vest with outside foam
fly-attachment. Organized tippet dispensers in various sizes and nippers
handy. Hemostats attached to vest.
