damn right, although i wouldn't put it past large capitalist companies, maybe get people in places like china and india to do it for the most deporable wages ever, it's bad enough trying to tie one knot, but tying the things all day, you'd well get a headache

Not to mention RSI.

 

Most (if not all) flies are hand-tied.

Maybe they are made in the chinese or indian sweat shops like a lot of the Fishing Flies on the market?

 

The slaves of the western world.

 

Most flies for sale here are (or, at least, certainly used to be) hand-made in various parts of Africa.

Bloody hell, just imagine sat on your ass for hours on end tying them, it'd be enough to put off fishing for life.....perhaps
