Sometimes when i make a bunch of jigs at a time it seems like it takes forever. Are there any tips for saving time in tying that would help me tie faster? Right now the only thing ive been doin to save time is allways having my scissors in my hand. I average 1 jig every 3 minutes or less. Thanks

All I could say is lots of jigs as time and numbers will get you faster.I lay all my materials out in the order I use them so all I have to do is pick them up and tye them in and move to the next.Sorry wish I could be of more help maybe some other inputs will come your way to aid some.Good luck and tight lines.

Good info Tim.. I think 2-3 minutes per jig is a good number.Im more after quality than speed,but I only tie for me and friends..
He's right practice,practice,practice !!!

I too recommend focusing on quality rather than quanity.I can tie pretty fast if I want to but perfer to take a little extra time to get it exactly how I want it... I think your in the ball park of time where you can knock several out however you can still maintain quality

We have a concert series here in Midland in the summer time. Bring a cooler and chairs to the Museum lawn. He played several years ago and it was by far the best one they have had.
The guy is amazing.
