Quick take
A rotary fly vise with 360 degree rotation for tying streamers, salt-water patterns, and jigs up to 24 ounces.
The Colorado Anglers 102 Supreme is a rotary fly tying vise that turns a full 360 degrees while the hook stays clamped, so you can reach the back of the hook without re-seating it. A cast iron clamp holds it to the bench, and the jaws are made for small flies yet take larger and saltwater hooks. Tiers who spin bucktail jigs or teasers will find the adjustments useful.
Best for
- Tying large streamers and saltwater flies with bucktail
- Anglers who want full access to the hook shank while rotating
Skip if
- Tying very small dry flies; the vise is better suited to large patterns
- Minimalist fly tiers who work with small hook sizes
Strengths
- 360 degree rotation speeds up bucktail and hair application
- Cast iron clamp securely holds heavy gauge hooks
- Graphite blank is strong enough for 24-ounce jig bodies
Trade-offs
- Primarily designed for saltwater and large freshwater patterns
- One-piece construction makes transport and storage difficult
- Not ideal for precision work on small dry fly hooks
