Oh well at least I can get the idea and now that I found this site and all its great advice and info I'm sure it will make my new hobbie alot more enjoyable thanks all in advance and if I ask way to many question just smack me

Hey if you find out you like tying you can always upgrade to a true rotary vise and I am sure you will if you keep it up. The thread thing will work OK, but at some point you may want to get thread in waxed 210 denier for jigs and in the color the body will be. If you are tying thread neck jigs you can get by with just red and black for the most part.

Ask questions and don't worry about if you feel they may be stupid or something as there are no stupid questions, only stupid answers, LOL!

BTW, I am sure you like me can not add up your take of meat by the cost per pound or ti will look really bad, especially deer hunting and the like. However when you consider a high dollar boat in fish get pretty expensive too, LOL!

Good Luck and welcome to the board!
