Makes sense to me. I will certainly give it a try. Right now, I have to tie
some chironomid patterns for when the lakes become ice free.

Nev,I also used the Electrical hooks and they work fine just like a good pair
of pliers. I wrap my Parachutes a bit different than normal. What I find I can
hold the arm vertical while the pliers is alt an angle. I can work the hackle
down under the upper wrap then over the hook shank and dip back under the wrap
with a up and down motion. It just works well for me. I found I have more
control with the hinge pliers than I have with the fixed pliers. The beauty of
it all is we can do what works best for us.Tony

Hmm! you have a good point there Tony. I never thought of that. Perhaps that
is the reason I bought the rotary hinged type in the first place. ☺️ I tie
parachutes once in a while, but can't remember what hackle pliers I use. My go
to hackle pliers are the electrical style as long as they have a ring to hold
or put your finger in. They grip the hackle well. Next time I tie some
parachute hackled flies I will remember to use the rotary pliers.

Allan give Chuck a break. LOLA rotary vise is useless for winding parachute
hackles. The swivel hackle pliers is the way to go on them. That is all I have
used for about 25 years. The long handle one is the best for that. I can show
what I mean at the show., Gee now I am picking on you. LOL I am in a good mood
this morning.BTW, the poppers are finished and you can pick them up at the
Sowbug.Tony

Well, since Allan reminded me that since I have a rotary vise, in theory I
already have rotating hackle pliers, and since I hadn’t actually hit the
“order” button, I just deleted the pliers and jacked up the number of foam
spider bodies I ordered which I KNOW I use all the time LOL.. Chuck From:

can't help but laugh, we have been delicately trying to tell you not to bother
because we hardly ever use rotary hackle pliers, but you bought both sizes
anyhow. Oh, I'm still laughing 😃 Neville (Nev) Gosling

went ahead and ordered two pair as one has a short handle of about 1 1/2” I
think and the other has a 4 1/2” handle with a built in half hitch tool on the
end of the handle. Guess it’s the only way I can find out of they are my cup of
tea or not. My Daddy did a lot of mechanic work his whole life and he used to
tell me “Son, you can’t have too many tools” LOL.. Guess I’ll find out if he
was right. In my mechanics tool box and my tool shed, most tools I own I hardly
ever use , but when I need them I REALLY need them. Thanks to all, Chuck

some, rarely use them, but don't usually use this kind of hackle pliers tip as
I find it breaks the hackle more often than the standard pliers tips that come
together. I think it is just a matter of preference. On Thu, Mar 12, 2015

wanted to try a pair of Rotary Hackle Pliers. Do they work good?? Are they
better than regular hackle pliers. Only problem I foresee is that after you
wrap the hackle, those rotary pliers will hang down a lot farther than normal
hackle pliers, making getting your lock in thread wraps behind the hackle would
be harder to do than using reg. hackle pliers. Am I missing something there??
Thanks for any pros or cons. They are only $3.45 from Stockard, which is the
place I’m ordering from, but if I’ll never use them, that’s $3.45 I could use
on something I will use. Chuck
