I almost buy the tube fly adapter for the vise but after a while I forgot about it.
But it still catches my attention, the economy on hooks has to be huge.

Never used tube flies...

I'm curious how does the fly stay oriented without a hook to act as a keel? Do you need special patterns designed to rotate or is it not much of an issue?

Howdy San
The hook is imprisoned for a plastic glove and if it detaches whenthe fish catches the fly. Therefore, it is not turning.
