Here’s a really cool way to keep your bodkin handy, clean, and always ready when tying flies and lures. A bodkin is a needle with a handle used by fly tyers.
This is so simple and takes just a few minutes.
• Stop and pick-up several plastic film cans from a photo processing store.
• Drill several holes in the lid. A 1/16”drill bit works well here.
• Pack the film can with 00 steel wool, then snap on the lid.
When working with glue, epoxy and other gooey stuff…just push the bodkin into the film can to clean off the goo. It a great place to store your bodkin too.
