MeddelandeDang: The difference there appears to be HUGE.. But I doubt I could tie either one LOL.. I tied a 28 once, with just a simple tail of about 3 hairs from my dog, a red thread body, and silver tinsel collar. Even then my eyeballs were still spinning after three days. I carry it in a tiny zip loc in my wallet and it amazes ppl around here though..A 32 would really blow their minds LOL.. You guys have me intrigued. I think I'm gonna try to order some TMC 518's , Chuck

I thought it was the other way around about which one was no longer in production... Do you go to Sowbug??? Do ppl make comments like that there?? I'm wondering as I'm supposed to tie there this year LOL.. Course, my flies are gonna be size 12 and 14, which I consider a small fly, even for trout.. Course they can kiss my A$$ if they don't like what I'm tying ROFL..

As far as the Tiemco goes, I'm pretty sure they still make them. It's the other way around the Mustad is smaller than the Tiemco. To give you an idea of what you're getting. If I tie in public, since I'm usually tying warm water or salt water flies, and sometimes the trout only folks will make a comment about us not really being fly tyers since we only tie large flies, I carry a fly tied on the the TMC hook in a small plastic case with a magnifier in the lid so the fly can be seen otherwise it looks like a speck of dust. I'm not sure I posted this before but here is a link to the Smallest Fly Project. I've got a fly in it and so does Tony. There a nice picture the Mustad size 32 at the top. http://www.danica.com/flytier/sfp_previewx/sfp_preview.htm Jerry Caruso "All things considered, I'd rather be in Philadelphia." ----- boosbooksandbarga...@earthlink.net wrote: > John: Can I ask where you found the hooks???
