Just a note on the terra vise. I picked one up at Cabela’s before watching your review. Afterwards, I planned to return it because I was having the same issue with the vise tightening after three rotations. I had a bunch of flies I wanted to tie for a trip, so I figured I would spin them up and bring the vise back the next day. After playing around a bit (the included instructions were not great) I discovered that getting the vise to rotate was just a matter of process. You have set the disc closest to the jaws so it is just far enough away to allow the jaws to rotate, then you tighten the smaller disc (the one with the handle) INTO the first one until it’s tight. Then the vise rotated freely and very smoothly. So for those of you considering the Terra vise, it does work well as a rotary vise.

Thanks for the honest review Matt. This is so much more than a how to fly tying channel, please keep up the fantastic work. Thanks for giving back to the community.

Nice to see affordable options and you did a real in depth review of each model. The biggest barrier to entry in fly tying is the price and this video just changed that.

Thanks Matt you're amazing all these people start channels to make money and it's all you do is give the money away thank you thank you thank you #Vise

[piercebruneau]

Thank you for the honest reviews! I was between the Terra vise and the sportsmans Colorado angler vise.. went with sportsmans for a few extra bucks and it's been worth it.

Man I really loved this video I liked to river runs #vise over the max catch cause it looks more simple all and all great video as always

[garrettswoodworx]

Thanks for the honest reviews Matt. We can tell it isn't easy for you to do those negative reviews but that makes them all the more credible IMHO. Seems like the quality of the stuff Cabelas is selling is heading downwards lately. Have a great week!

[hardyschlegel]

I like the fact that you are honest with all of your reviews. Great video thanks for sharing Matt!

[davehall]

Great review Matt, love to see and hear about new people tying
It's a great feeling when you catch fish on a fly that you tied your self
Thanks for all you do

Hi Matt. Once again, nice review. Your timing is unbelievable. Looking again for a #Vise but this one is for my son. He uses the one I got for my grandson. My grandson just told me he can't ty because dad's using it.
Wish me luck

I'm just getting In to this world of fly-fishing. Been buying gear and supper excited to do this my little boy. We have been watching your videos. You explain and demonstrate perfectly for some one as new as me. So much to learn. Thanks for all your videos. BIG HELP! Keep safe!

[Hikin]

Thank you for your honest reviews Matt. It is always so nice to have the insight before you go out and buy a dud. Have a great day!

[allenaviation]

Good information Matt! You're doing a great job of helping new tyers and the fly tying community in general. I've never had a Supreme but I would probably pick that one just to mess around with the different jaws! $20 worth of fun!
