    Default Broke my vise : (

    I wondered why my vice only cost $12 now I know! I was on a roll ,tying a dozen dang good jigs a night... had some great ideas for color combos tonight,then it happen on the first one. Hopefully our machinist at work can fix it tomorrow enough to get me by till i can get a better one. I feel like a an addict that cant get his drug!

    Sorry for your problems and that would be a bad spot to be in. Somewhat new to tying and getting on a roll, excited by success of getting better and more ideas and then, Broke vise and now addicted to tying. Good luck with the fix!

    Good news! He fixed it...better news fished today and one of my jigs was the only one i could get them to bite,they was picky today i usely can catch fish on a lake fork baby shad if they wont bite nothing else.but today they wouldn't even hit it. Finally found something that wanted and caught about 20 most were small but a few nice ones. I'll tie up about 50 more copies of this one tomorrow!

    Awesome! Glad the vice is fixed and it is great to hear the crappie like your jig. Nothing any better than catching fish on your own baits. Congrats
