I really like Loon stackers and I’ve been slowly replacing various tools with their lineup over time. Enjoy your videos and being from the eastern Ozarks I like how versatile your patterns can be.
I appreciate all the info you give started fly fishing and tying rather recently and found you when I was looking for info on fly fishing in my beloved Ozarks.
Love the cutter! Been using one I got from a sewing store, but it always gets lost on my bench ! lol That big yellow handle will make it stand out in my pile of stuff !!
I am sort of new to tying and I have learned a lot from your videos. I am bad about watching videos without signing in. I thought this would be a good time to sub and to thank you for the effort and quality you put in your videos. Keep up the good work, thanks!
I use my D-Loop tweezers so much, but they are very big for small nymph work. Really excited about smaller sizes, especially for CDC work! Can't wait for your CDC video!
I totally agree! For the most part, I make pretty large dubbing loops so the big tweezers work well.....but when I want to size down the big tweezers are too much.
About the scissors cutting & pushing hair absolutely truth, i stopped buying the cheap tools & now I use Loon also!!! That cutter tools I'm gonna have to get, thanks for the video & your demo on how to process with the product. Thx
Hi Brian! Man those thread cutters are so awsome! Loon should give you a sales fee right now because I for one am sold! This the disabled guy from California who fishes flies on spinning gear and I have nerve damage in my hands from having to have two carple tunnel surgeries over the years so these will make my tying much easier! Thanks Brian! I'll tell them you sent me! Tight lines!
Good call. The only thing is, I have found my thread wants to slide off before it cuts.....In my opinion, they couldn't make it quite sharp enough because if would have been a hazard. But you are 100% right, there is a thread cutter on the Loon Whip Finish tool.
Picked up the large dubbing tweezer last winter and I think it's awesome! I have plans to gradually replace my older tools with Loon Outdoors products.
I’ve been waiting for that smaller angled tweezer forever! I do a lot of marabou collars and that is the perfect size and the angle to make it so much easier to cut the stem off clean so I can get 2 collars out of 1 feather instead of mutilating the other half trying to cut flat alongside the jaws.
I have a few Loon tools already, like the ergo dubbing brush and ergo regular bobbin, that I really like. I'm intrigued by the angled tweezers and the cutter. I wonder how well it cuts GSP.
Great questions! You may have seen it, but watch this portion of the video, it will show you how smooth they spin: ua-cam.com/video/etwYXBShMKk/v-deo.htmlsi=ROejya656MeOw0mL&t=394 They are super smooth. The Cutter is actually a tweaked edge beveler used in leatherwork. The "blade" seems super durable and absolutely can be sharpened (if you know how to do it correctly.) I have cut GSP, hackle stems, sili-legs, etc, and it does really well. It does take a little bit of getting used to, but once you get the angles down....it is pretty cool.
I usually "wear" my tying scissors how big are the finger loops on the curved scissors? Bobbins look great as most of my bobbins are on the small size for my hands and when tying articulated or large streamers.
I bought several special tools loon. Nice look, good ergonomics, but the hardness of the blades could be improved. I miss the scissors, wire cutters and v-blade. TNX ! 😁 👍
I've had the same issues with that style of bobbin. I'd be interested in knowing your go to bobbin? I'm looking the tweezers and cutters though! Thanks!
I just bought a number of these tools, so glad they got your stamp of approval. 2 questions, though. On the new bobbins, how do they spin? My objection to those other bobbins you were referring to, above all else, is that when you twist them to cord up or flatten thread, something I do constantly, they wobble, sometimes like crazy and move the thread on the hook, or knock into the vise stem or whatever. This is the result of having a heavy arm and a light arm. I hate them as a result.The Loon bobbins you show look to be pretty well balanced so that they are close to the same weight on each arm. Am I right? My other question is about the Ergo cutter, which I did buy. My question is how it holds up to things like GSP threads or other harder materials. My fear is that such a tool will dull quickly in use. Can it be sharpened? How durable is the blade? Just curious as to your experience.
I find you advice about tying and tools very helpful! I watch all the time for tips and tricks! Please put me in for the drawing!

Love that beefed up tensioned bobbin!
Haha I appreciate the shout-out! Yes, I would definitely use this to put the hook in the vise 😂
I was thinking about _tiesflies_ aswell XD
I love that cutter! It is very cool! I like the ergo bobbin too! Loon makes the coolest stuff!
Winters coming = fly tying season = new tools!!!!
We don't see many fly tying tool updates .... enjoy seeing the new Loon products
Really digging those tweezers and the cutting tools. Thanks for the product spotlight!
Good ergonomics are required at my age (70). Love the new Loon line! Thanks for sharing your input.
I appreciate all the info you give started fly fishing and tying rather recently and found you when I was looking for info on fly fishing in my beloved Ozarks.
Thank you for getting me on the loon products. They are all amazing.
Very cool! Glad I could help.
Loon makes great tools! Thanks for the videos
Pretty cool tools, those angled D loop tweezers are a game changer.
I think so too!
Love the bobbin holder and use the D loop tweezers for all my dubbing loops. Excited to get the new set of D Loop tweezers. Love the angle and size.
Several of those would be great for these arthritic hands. Good Ergonomics are required as you age. Thanks for sharing!
I am getting more into fly tieing and those tools will come in clutch.
Awesome!!
Loon tools are some of my favorite tools. The yellow makes them easy to see on my bench.
I like the flat black SO MUCH......but it 'can' get lost in the mix.
Love the cutter! Been using one I got from a sewing store, but it always gets lost on my bench ! lol That big yellow handle will make it stand out in my pile of stuff !!
Huge fan of Loon tools. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Love the cutter
It's such a cool idea.
Love me some Loon tools. Always well thought out products.
My grandmother had one of those cutters in her sewing kit, I had never thought of using it for thing.
Loon's on the cutting edge of tying tools.
Excited to try the bobbin and cutter. The tweezers look great as well. Thanks for the review
That thread cutter looks awesome. Keep the good stuff coming buddy.
Thanks, will do!
Great video! Always a big fan of Loon fly tying tools. Keep up the great work!
Thanks!!
Love to try the tweezers on a dubbing loop. Looks a lot more effective than my old chip clip!
Chip clips work pretty well! I would say these tweezers would last for generations though.
I have used Loon for years and really love the new Ergo series. None of us are getting any younger. Thanks for sharing!
Love that “V” cutter. Great idea!
Nice im glad loon has come out with more of the tools 🔧
I am sort of new to tying and I have learned a lot from your videos. I am bad about watching videos without signing in. I thought this would be a good time to sub and to thank you for the effort and quality you put in your videos. Keep up the good work, thanks!
Thanks so much!
I use my D-Loop tweezers so much, but they are very big for small nymph work. Really excited about smaller sizes, especially for CDC work! Can't wait for your CDC video!
Loon tools are incredible. They just feel so good in your hand!
Totally agree!
well thought out tools!
Greetings from Denmark, I love your videos and Loon tools, both are amazing.
Thank you very much!
Ha! I've been using that wire for years. First time I see someone else using it and of course it's YOU. Good stuff Brian!
It's the best....and doesn't break the bank!
I ❤ those tweezers
They are really well thought out.
I purchased Loon tools when I started tying and never regretted it. Great quality.
Great to hear!
Cool tools,I am leaning towards tweezers and scissors. Thanks for the New products info Brian.
Thanks for watching!!
Love them all. ❤❤
Enjoy all the loon products I have
Great vid!! I’ve been using the “giant” loons tweezer and it’s way more than I need. The smaller angled tweezer is perfect.
I totally agree! For the most part, I make pretty large dubbing loops so the big tweezers work well.....but when I want to size down the big tweezers are too much.
Those tweezers really look like they would be very useful for all types of tying.
I think so too!
Pretty good video. Tools are expensive but you get what you pay for. I’d love to get those scissors for sure!
Awesome I also enjoy loons products!! And your vids
The tweezer set looks great!!!
I think that set is probably the MVP of the new tools.
About the scissors cutting & pushing hair absolutely truth, i stopped buying the cheap tools & now I use Loon also!!! That cutter tools I'm gonna have to get, thanks for the video & your demo on how to process with the product. Thx
killer video all round u do well with this product spt lights love them keep up the good work carnt wait for the next
Love the new loon line!!
Need that back bobbin
The tweezers are also really cool.
Hi Brian! Man those thread cutters are so awsome! Loon should give you a sales fee right now because I for one am sold! This the disabled guy from California who fishes flies on spinning gear and I have nerve damage in my hands from having to have two carple tunnel surgeries over the years so these will make my tying much easier! Thanks Brian! I'll tell them you sent me! Tight lines!
Awesome! Thanks!
I think 🤔 the Loon Outdoors is a great fit with Brian Wise as an Ambassador.
Those tweezers look cool, and I like the thread cutters. To be honest, I have a bobbin addiction . So thank you for making me spend money.... lol
Glad I can help! :)
Love all the new tools! Loon knocking it out of the park.
100%
Man, id love to have those Tweezers. Just wanted to do a couple of Ned Rig Flys and thats exactly what i need for the dubbing loops 😅
Great video Thanks Brian. Loon makes some great tools I'm going to have to get myself one of those thread cutters.
They are pretty cool!
I like the little stuff!
Enjoyed the review, nice look at the new loon tools
Loon tools for the WIN !
Those look fantastic!
They are!
The tweezer kit looks sweet
Just wanted to say thanks for giving me more Loon tools to buy. Puts off retirement another year 😂😂
They are very cool in black
Another great spotlight video, thanks for sharing.
That cutter would be awesome to have.
Cool tools
I picked up Loon’s core tool set when I started tying and they’re holding up great.
Hi all...There is a thread cutter on the bottom of the loon whip finisher which is excellent.
Good call. The only thing is, I have found my thread wants to slide off before it cuts.....In my opinion, they couldn't make it quite sharp enough because if would have been a hazard. But you are 100% right, there is a thread cutter on the Loon Whip Finish tool.
I like that cutter!
Right?!?!
Cool fly tying tools from Loon now I’m not enjoying so much what I have anymore tying flies. 🧑🌾🤟🎣🐟
Picked up the large dubbing tweezer last winter and I think it's awesome! I have plans to gradually replace my older tools with Loon Outdoors products.
That is awesome!
Brian, I need another Loon tool!
Love this video
I’ve been waiting for that smaller angled tweezer forever! I do a lot of marabou collars and that is the perfect size and the angle to make it so much easier to cut the stem off clean so I can get 2 collars out of 1 feather instead of mutilating the other half trying to cut flat alongside the jaws.
Right! The angle makes the whole thing easier!
Great seeing that you showed love to Joe "Sgt. Bass Fisher."
I love this video❤
Those are some nice looking tools.
Welp, I know what’s going on my Christmas list this year.
Brian, great tools from loon.
P.S. Lady Bugs are great predators for the garden. They will destroy aphids.
Good info!
Thanks!
Been thinking about getting the swiss cdc clip. May have to look at those tweezers now.
I love the Loon ergo tools. They are the only ones I find that fit my meat hands. I've got to get one of those bobbins.
Gear guys love these videos.
Need that black bobbin please lol
Looooon
I love how you don’t bs anyone about the bobbins. I need to try one though
I'm still not the biggest fan of this style of bobbin........it's probably the old school dude in me.
I like the yellow, but fushia would have me buying a full set of everything!
I have a few Loon tools already, like the ergo dubbing brush and ergo regular bobbin, that I really like. I'm intrigued by the angled tweezers and the cutter. I wonder how well it cuts GSP.
I actually meant to show the cutter cutting GSP....it works really well.
Awesome tools!
I think so too!
The vape was really kicking in during the wirecutter review. The vid just kept getting better and better.
Those are some great tools! Definitely be adding them to my next fly tying order.
Pick me! Pick me!😂
Great questions!

I have been using a cutter like this last on for years. I got it in a pharmacy in the nail department. 😅
I usually "wear" my tying scissors how big are the finger loops on the curved scissors? Bobbins look great as most of my bobbins are on the small size for my hands and when tying articulated or large streamers.
Depending on the size of your hand, the finger holes on the Loon scissors are definitely "wearable." :)
@@flyfishingtheozarks Thanks!
I bought several special tools loon. Nice look, good ergonomics, but the hardness of the blades could be improved. I miss the scissors, wire cutters and v-blade. TNX ! 😁 👍
I don't have any Loon products but they look great.
I've had the same issues with that style of bobbin. I'd be interested in knowing your go to bobbin? I'm looking the tweezers and cutters though! Thanks!
This is my favorite bobbin, hands-down: www.feather-craft.com/item/ln122/loon-loon-ergo-bobbin/1.html
