    There are 2 sizes of tubing used in tying tube flies and the large size would probably be perfect for that bugman! It comes in some nice colors too! Let me find you a link to see.....

    Only reason I picked HMH for this is because they were one of the first to sell a vise for tube flies and I have bought tubing from them before.

    look under this on this page.....

    You can also get tubing here that will fit over all size trebles. But I do like that purple that HMH has!!

    I really really like mine. Only draw back on it is it bends a fairly good size circle for tying the leader to.



    Those look great. I have one but like you said it made large eyes. Went back to the round nose pliers. Maybe I need to get it back out and try it again. I would like to know of other uses for it as well.

    Your welcome bugman and you have been at this for a good while too and have only heard good things.

    I have one more I just learned about and need to see if it's good for this or not. Will get back if it looks good. Well I looked and there is a limited number of colors and some colors only sold by the roll and the size you would probably want is 250 feet long, LOL! However if your color is Yellow they have some Translucent and sold in 10 foot lengths minimum, but standard size is 50 foot long. I doubt this will be what anyone is looming for unless they plan on making a lot of stuff to use it on. However if any of this interest anyone PM me and I can get a link.

    Oh and this stuff resist cracking, swelling or embrittlement and UV Resistant.

    A bit too much for me at this stage but someday who knows......my main colors would be char,white,yellow,pink and black.The only reason I want it is I'm too darn lazy/impatient to tie like you fellers do

    Really the only one that makes any sense is the yellow one which seems they make it more for gas containers and that is the o LY one they sell in 10' lengths and the entire roll is 50'. I will get a link.

    Here it is and I am talking about the top 2 Yellow ones. Example you can buy a 25' long roll for like under a dollar per foot.
    Oops... There Is a Problem

    Even thought the link says Oops, it should still work, LOL! It's U.S. Plastic Corp.
