How to make a fly tying bobbin! 

Excellent bit of kit Billy . My bait wrapping/loading tool is 2 lengths of whisk wire stuck into a champagne cork. Works a treat. More videos on home brewed kit please.

Billy, you are a bloody genius. Love your channel and learning so much from you, Thanks Brother

Nice little gadget billy, looked at wife’s whisk,and it’s plastic 🤣🤣appreciate your efforts mate 👍🏼

Love this stuff. I've made a ton of tools overall for fishing, baiting needles, netting shuttles, de-hookers, etc. etc..

Thanks sir Billy ! Yer a gid man , when I had said before I never had the link , I realised the next time you done it , it was on RU-vid not my email lol 😅👍

Awesome, it was like a handy episode of blue Peter ,, 👍👍🤠

Brilliant that is thanks Billy 👍🏼 I’m also sure you can read minds as I was going to buy one this week for assists! that’s not the first time I’ve been thinking about something and then see you had just made a video about it! 🤣 Great work and videos 😎🎣

Good little tool there billy ,great for making them mackerel feathers for summer ,cheers for the info on the hard stainless , il check that out 👍👍

A video right up my street. Only just got back into fishing after 2 decades. Caught my first two fish (this time around) on a rod and reel I made myself (estuary so no big casts). Also just been laid up with a virus this past week. So I've made myself a fishing box out of garden bamboo canes and and old rucksack. I'm terrible at sorting my kit after a session so my newbox will allow everything to dry out. Look forward to seeing more videos like this 👍

Well done a money saver and definitely something that someone will use 👏 😊

Cheers billy you top tipster. All the best n a happy crimbo from GRIMSBY

Hi Billy glad to see that you are safe and well.. what can one say about this video.. expect you never disappoint. By Your videos are always informative for novice and experienced fisher persons alike.. Anyway mate stay safe and well.. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.👍 I'm looking forward to the next installment of Billy's fishing ..😋

Excellent. I needed one of these. Thanks

Always great information 👍

Boom Billy no use to me at the moment but thanks anyway great job thanks again ❤

Great video billy, very informative brother 👍

Great tip Billy, being a one time mad keen fly fishing fanatic and fly tyre I have half a dozen bobbins at home. But still a great addition to anyone’s kit. As you say, it acts as an extra hand. Thanks Billy🐟🇳🇴

Nice one Billy brother!

For my baiting tool i use V shaped tent pegs then cut a groove in the end , 5 pegs for £8 quid.

I'll have to see if i can scrounge some tig welding stainless wire from work. If not "Jann's Netcraft "has stainless wire shafts 25 -12" shafts for $5.89 . This is an old catalog so they may have gone up since 2021.

Good video, informative, it's good to make and use your own gear, something satisfying about making something that's fit for purpose and actually works. Cheers Billy 🍺🍺👍. Mark.

nice👍

hi billy , great vid again , can you show us your rotten bottom release clips please mate .cheers

Binding wire is too flexible, but cheap. I use my cordless drill to twist the wire. That makes it much less flexible.

Quality man ! Another good one ! What type of knot areyou using for said braid to braid Billy , i was going to go with a double uni ?? Cheers brother

I seen some one said about making mackerel feathers how do u make them with my new tool thanks

Have you got any ideas how to get the ratchet on my 525 to sound as good as yours Billy 🤔🎣🐟
