Im 45 and am having the same troubles ,has anyone used the glasses that clip under the bill of a ball cap . i have seen them in fly shops and was thinking i might get a pair.
Just turned 47 today and have had the jig tying problem for the past 2 years now. Sucks to get old!!
My eyes started to go bad when I hit 45 now at 52 I have a real hard time tying 2 lb test line to a small jig even with my reading glasses. They are just the cheap ones from Wal-mart +2.25 Do they make some other type of super magnifying glasses? Or has anyone tried a higher magnification? The +2.25 are good for reading but not working with 2 lb mono and a tiny ice fishing jig. Specially when you are outside on the lake.
What do you guys think the easiest and most dependable knot would be for us guys that have trouble seeing. I'm talking about a knot for tying onto a small jig.
