Hook snelling
 

I'm looking for ideas on how to hold hook's when tying rig's. Maybe fly tying vise ? But they are expensive. Any help will be appreciated.

I just use my fingers to hold them. With practice, it gets a lot easier. If they keep slipping for some reason, you could try needlenose pliers.

Thank's, I seem to alway's forget youtube. there's a lot of good info there.

Yeah..there is a guy who does it with a heavy string that makes it easy to see. Actually I just adjusted my snelling technique after watching one of his vids.

Good luck and once you get it, tie a few dozen. Repetition burns it into the brain! :D
