logoThe Daylight Company makes lights and magnifiers for those that like to do crafts.  We don't really do "crafts" in the traditional sense; we make flies!  And, some of you out there like to make teeny tiny little 22 midges.  You might need a little help seeing (especially those anglers out there who are a bit past the 30 year mark), so today we take a look at Daylight's Flexilens.  Is it worth your money?

Peak LogoYou can't tie flies without a good vise; it's kind of the foundation of your fly tying house. So it's only fitting that the first fly tying review for this winter is on a vise.  Peak sent us a nice little model to try out.  What did Brian think of it?  Click here to read all about it!

thumbBrian takes a gander at Dr. Slick's Razor Scissors today for our gear review this week.  Do they make the cut?  Are they sharp enough to cut the mustard?  I've got a million of these, but I think I'll spare you and just let you get on to the review.
