How much harder it is to see the line while you're tying on hooks? It seems they have made great strides in line invisibility the past year or so!!!banghead
It also seems they are making jig eyes much smaller than they used too!!!:dono
Seems a lot of things are changing!!! Oh well adapt, adjust and overcome!!!:biggrin
yep, it's happening to me also. i do pretty good until i get in low light conditions. i first noticed it when the wife and i were at a nice romantic resturant, you know the type with the mood lighting. well, it reminds you of your age when you're holding the menu up trying to catch some light, all the while fussing cause neither one of you can see whats on the derned thing. ironic isn't it, years ago when i was sharp eyed as a hawk i could not afford to go to such a place, now that i can spare a couple bills every now and again i can't read the freakn' menu
There is a cure to this. It's called glasses.
yeah i know, but glasses might interfere with my purtiness. But on second thought i bet i could pull off that older distinquished gentleman lookQuote:

Go to the Dollar Store and get a pair of Magnifying glasses. you can get them from 1;25 to 3:50. i would start with 1;50, you only put them on when tying,you will be amazed how much easier it is. I have 2 pair in the boat,2 or 3 in the shop 1 in the kitchen 1 in the bathroom.
Thanks "G", I needed that. LOLQuote:

I am 45 now, been wearing glasses since I was 30 or so. First pair I got the prescription stayed the same for about 3 or four years until they changed. Doc kept tellin me that when I had to get bifocals it would change more often. Got them about year and a half ago. They gotta be replace now. Wife just made me and her an appintment. I started off with the invisible bifocals and love them, but doc told me if you had already started wearing the regular kind you prolly would not be able to make the adjustment to the invisilines. I got the photo gray and everything in mine cuz I am always out in the sun. Gettin old sucks sometimes lol.
Bout the only time i use a magnifier is when i m tying some jigs or gettin a splinter out.
that's a good one SpeckRoflQuote:
