I order Best Production Tying and hope that it will assist in my needs for more and faster flies. It will not arive for many weeks. For now how can I have faster flies?
Basically, be methodical, think like an assembly line. Plus of course practice, practice, practice. Some of the 'speed-up' tips in Best's book, which I still think is the best technique book out there, bar none, are to organize your work station, care for good ergonomics, and separate production tying into individual steps, such as sizing hackle before starting tying (i.e. take a neck and pluck it bare, collecting all same size hackles and putting them in their separate containers, so that when you need to tie a hundred dozen size 12 'you- name-its' you have 1200 hackles in that size at your finger tips... Or when you need to tie a bunch of bunch wing parachutes, tie all bunch wings first, then progress to the next step.
