overbrook 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2007 Batman...glad ya liked em'....like I said there was a small empty spot in one corner ...where I was gonna put some midges....but I tied up to the deadline and did'nt get to em'. Tried to put in as much of a variety as I could and realized you could fill ten boxes without covering every pattern...LOL...Hope you enjoy them! As for me ...I just now remembered about them!...I got up to make coffee (which will go in my cool new mug with fishies all over it ,that came filled with dubbing and spools of bennechi thread! :yahoo: ) and I remembered that I still had a gift to open! Thank you Nukemaster !! :headbang: Some very nice flies in a really cool box!! :yahoo: I must have 60 fly boxes...but I love this one and will be buying more... this will be great for blueline fishing or even going out light on the toon! The box has quite a few compartmeents and a small hole that will allow it to be clipped to a mini chest pack....I love it !! Thanks again BFR for hosting !! :yahoo: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
