PEAK Fishing is a division of PEAK Engineering and Automation. PEAK E&A opened for business in 1994 and moved to our current location in Loveland, Colorado in 1997. The business originated as a custom engineering and manufacturing company and has always been centered on strong engineering and quality manufacturing principles.
PEAK has outdone itself with their innovative straight coil design. This revolutionary technology causes the spring coils to form an inverted “V” shape, creating a much better experience than conventional wrapped springs provide. Additionally, PEAK’s parallel slits will hold materials more evenly and securely. The PEAK Material Clip is designed to fit 1/4″ diameter shafts and can rotate to any angle needed. To grip even more materials, it comes with two different sized coils. For best results, multiple clips can be used together for extra strength.

The PEAK Fshing C-Clamp offers superior performance and durability that is unmatched by any other vise clamp. This device functions with two precision guide pins which keep the jaw faces parallel, eliminating the possibility of a rotating clamp pad walking as it is clamped. The rabbet face engages securely to edges without scratching or scuffing the finish, ensuring your vise won’t rock when mounted on surfaces ranging in size from 11/16″ up to 2-1/4″.
An accessory post can also be accepted for use with 3/8″ shafts, enabling users to mount their vise onto virtually any type of surface from a banquet table to a picnic table.
The demand for an appropriate yet economical and dependable non-rotary vise has been answered with the PEAK Non-Rotary Vise. The same clamping system found on the reliable PEAK Rotary Vise is employed in this beneficial new tool. Its base is considerably smaller and lighter than its companion, making it a perfect option for individuals who are always on the move and need a lightweight fly tying vise.
The PEAK non-Rotary Vise is a great choice when convenience of transport is key. It disassembles easily and packs flat for simple storage, and it comes with an extra hole for our accessory shaft (not included). All PEAK accessories aside from the material clip are compatible with this vise, and as an added bonus, optional midge and saltwater jaws can be purchased separately. However, using the C-Clamp option does require the pedestal base to be purchased with it.
At PEAK, we were unhappy with the lighting solutions currently available. Halogen lights became too hot and needed a cooling off period before they could be put away, and worse yet, some could even result in burns if touched. Fluorescent sources were frequently not bright enough, produced off color light spectrums, were bulky, and the tubes are fragile. To solve this, PEAK came up with the Portable Fly-Tying Light. Our LED light source runs cool and provides a wide angle of light to illuminate your entire tying area with minimal power consumption. Even after a full day of tying, the housing remains cool to the touch; no need to worry about burning your hand if you accidentally touch your light. You also won’t feel the heat buildup in your tying area that you may from some light sources so tying will be safer and more comfortable.
Peak Fishing has been building some on the highest quality Tying vises in Colorado since 1994. Drawing on input from a very talented pool of local Colorado fly tiers, and their own engineering, fabrication, and manufacturing expertise, PEAK turned out their durable, functional, and affordable PEAK Rotary Fly-Tying Vise. All Peak vises are constructed from stainless steel, brass and Aircraft aluminum. Each detail of all of our vises are thoroughly thought out and designed to make your fly-tying enjoyable and productive. The steel jaws are built to hold hooks from size 2/0 to the smallest hooks available. Adjustments are simple and easily accomplished. Materials are chosen for strength, durability, and smooth operation. All of this is accomplished at a price well below the competition and backed by PEAK’s limited lifetime warranty.
As with the Pedestal Base configuration, PEAK’s C-Clamp mounting vise is engineered to outperform the competition. Reverse the lower rabbeted jaw to get a grip range from 2-1/4” to 11/16”. Jaws ride on precision guide rods, which hold the jaw faces parallel, meaning no rotating clamp screw to damage your table or work surface. Adjusting the clamp is accomplished by utilizing the large, comfortable tri-lobal screw. The deep rabbeted jaw engages even rounded table edges, so your vise won’t rock or shake as you tie. You won’t find a more stable, versatile, or robust clamp, and it’s the only clamp that will accept our accessory post.
Almost all our shops tiers have been using Peak vises for year, because of their durability and ease of use.
