Hi,
Haven’t posted for a long time. Can anyone suggest a rotary perhaps saltwater vice
to build bucktails. Want to get one with large jaws for both coil bodies and 7/0 treble hooks. Or can anyone suggest a diy system using a vice grip pliers. I only make 2 - 3 bucktails every year so the cost is a consideration.

I would also like to wish everyone a belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I got a dyna king barracuda. I tie flies on. It is expensive but very well built. Don’t have to change jaws for big 8/0 hooks to size 20 hooks.

For something really cheap can buy a small clamp vice at hardware store.
