I'm away on a business trip and I originally thought I would be away from from the vice for a whole week. With the season opener two weeks away I still have a lot of tying to do. Then I remembered the Marco Polo kit.
I snagged one of these off of e-bay a few months back and threw it in a drawer with intentions of using it on fishing trips away from home. I threw some thread on that triple spooled bobbin and filled the hook pallet up and dumped it in my luggage. I had a small bag packed with miscellaneous materials from a fly tying class I was teaching and dumped that in as well. This afternoon I spent a few enjoyable hours looking out over the storm filled skyline of Atlantic City tying flies. It sure beat pissing away money in the casinos. I should have spent some time putting together the materials needed for the flies I was hoping to tie, but I am getting by with the odds and ends I had already packed. Its a little hard to come by a fly shop in this town. I wonder what kind of materials one could get off a seagull...
I am jealous that you have one of those!!!
ReplyDeleteIt really is a great set-up. Every thing is of the highest quality. Everything you need is a very compact package. Granted its expensive, but I picked mine up off of e-bay at a considerable savings.
