The PEAK LIRS is really a brilliant vice for the bigger hooks. I'm tying on a Dyna King that can hold big hooks to. But the LIRS are still better for the job. It is not only the hook holding capacity, but the tying forces one can expose to this vice. There is the difference with the Dyna King. Something that is well engineered for a job don't have to be pretty. Maybe I buy one anyway.
This video is not dooshy or whatever. I love your videos and cool as hell. Would love to sit down and tie fly's with you one day if I ever had a chance.
My Renzetti literally just broke after watching this video. Am I going to send it in to be repaired? Yes. Did I also buy a Peak to see if it’s better? Yes.
I dont think they make them anymore, but Vosselar made the same jaws! That is the best set of jaws i have ever seen! I am pretty sure you would cut or break your hook before the vise slipped. The Peak Vise was my choice next to the Nor Vise I currently use!
Hello, good idea, efficient and very simple in fact. The only small defect is that the shank of the hook is not in the axis of rotation. But I think that by changing the jaw, it should be possible. Bravo for this achievement. Greetings.
Tied on a regular peak vise for couple of years and really did not like the hold. Changed for a renzetti and my God. I think I might get that big game jaw and switch it on my peak for my big hooks.
Which size is this please, looks perfect for my tying, I generally tie on 7/0_8/0, do you have any info on the conversion head for the peak rotary? Great content by the way, just discovered your channel
Hey Brian, I finally bought the LIRS. It works great except I can't get it to hold an SA270 8/0 or PR378 6/0 completely still. They move sideways in the vise when I try to tie on them. Any tips? I've adjusted it every which way and can't get it to work.
@@flyfishingtheozarks I just checked out your website. I didn't see if it said, but where are you located? I'm assuming your near the white? Do you have a shop, I was thinking about coming down sometime if you hold classes at your shop.
@@AdrianStruwig That would work! If you had the right gauge of the steel used for Tube Needles, and put a fake "hook bend" in it....it would work great!
I have this vise and I love it! Although I’ve have had on multiple occasions it take an Ahrex 1/0 Predator hook and snap them in two. Too fine of wire I guess... But tying big streamers and spinning deer hair I don’t think it can be beat. Just my opinion...

I will never be without a LIRS. It doesn't solve all problems with vises, but it 100% solves big hook holding issues---period.
Eye of the beholder. This vise is a beast! If you tie big fly's on the regular, you want this.
Agreed.

Peak user here. This vid got me thinking!

Cool! I didn't know Vosselar made a draw-bar vise!

Love these! Great job! Pure enjoyment to watch
Thanks!
Brilliant! Very well done.
Peak gang checking in
Ding Ding!
I tie bucktail jigs for striper fishing here in NJ, and that looks like it'd be a winner for what I do (3/4-3oz w/ Mustad 3407 8/0-9/0)
Perfect!

It’s the size 2

Hey Sean, depends on which size of LIRS you got. Does it hold stuff as small as a #2 real well?
I live somewhat close, (SE Kansas) do you ever do fly tying classes, or get togethers
I do! The closest I have done a class is KC.
@@flyfishingtheozarks I just checked out your website. I didn't see if it said, but where are you located? I'm assuming your near the white? Do you have a shop, I was thinking about coming down sometime if you hold classes at your shop.
Is this a number 2 of the LIRS? The one in your video. Thanks .
Yep!
Yeah, I want that.
Do you have any regrets not going with larger one?
Zero. I have tied on everything from #4 through 8/0 on this vise.
flyfishingtheozarks Thank you!
I guess you can’t tie tube on it either? Or is there an attachment for that?
No tubes either. But, in all seriousness you either have a tube vise, or have to have an attachment anyway.
flyfishingtheozarks I’m sure you could make something or somehow put a bend into a tube needle that would fit into that clamp.

The only hooks that I have ever seen break in the LIRS.......are Ahrex. Love the shape of their hooks, but they have issues with their wire.

HUGE pet peeve of mine!!
I love my peak
I have to disagree, their beauty is in their bullet proof simplicity. EVERYTHING ELSE at this level is pointless expensive fluff.
I mean......you're not wrong. :)
Super💪💪💪💪Like✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
😮
Twice the vise for twice the price? I guess so if you tie a lot of shark flies.
