great tip, Vince. And, as always, a pleasure to hear from you!!

Thanks, Tom. I've been absent for a couple of months because of
computer problems. Glad to be back.

Happy Holidays!

Would you have to tie in the hooks backwards in the
southern hemisphere ? ;-)

Reversing the wire wraps suffices.

don't the hooks get magnetized?

I know of one person that polishes the varnish off the hooks and dips
them in brine before tying. This starts a bit of rust which some say
mimics the electrical field of a bug in the water. He says it works.
I've tried it and got a rusty fly box out of the deal.
