Angelfan61 Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 I was looking for good punch skirts today and was told it’s best to make them myself. Where do you find supplies for this task? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfredo7zavala Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Anyone have any tips on tying these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 I slide the "mandrel" (the part that gets the skirt tied around) onto one end of a straightened paper clip. Hopefully it's a tight enough fit to keep the mandrel from turning, but, if it's not, I put a slight bend in the clip wire to act as a kind of a spring, to hold the mandrel. Then I clamp the other, unstraightened end of the paper clip in my fly tying vise. Then I just tie my skirt material on the same way I tie skirts on jigs. It works for me, so it must be pretty simple to do. Hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
