Flags

Don't ever offer to tie flags. They are the most labor intensive tie there is. The reason is that because there is no hook, you need to tie all the way around the shank. Total PIA!!!!

Ditto Paulie...always looking for someone to tie them for me. I usually have to tie myself now. Found making these posts out of plug wire remnants helps.

Great idea. I just bought 100. Tied 15 for a member here and charged $2.00/ea. Stupid cheap. My wife said the given the amount of time it took, I am an idiot.
