Default Fly tying Areas


Some good advice.


Tanks, Willi =)

I'll second the OTT light. When I first got one I wasn't impressed, it
didn't seem bright compared to what I had been using. However, once I
got used to it, it is outstanding. It's easy on your eyes, the colors
appear like they do in natural light, and it brings out the details in
the flies.


The other benefit of the OTT over many of the regular swing arm or hi
intensity lights is it's cooler... your hands can develop small blisters
on the backs from tying under even a 40w incandescent bulb in a swing
arm fixture and CERTAINLY can under even a 15w high intensity light

Yeah, the OTT is sort of expensive and you can occasionally find them
used at a discount, but th bulbs ain't cheap either...

Larry
