MCFR Fly Boxes

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

Have a small number of each style box left in stock right now and will be posting these on a few different websites so it's first come first serve on these boxes. Shipping will be actual shipping USPS to your address no extra charge for shipping on multiple box orders.

This box features the split foam design with slits for the fly hooks modeled after the C&F style boxes. Has a very tight waterproof seal to completely seal out any water, hard sides and very durable, and has a secure locking latch on it.
$6.75





This style box is a super light weight box that also features the split foam design, but is made of light weight material so you hardly know it's in your pocket.
$5.50



Very limited supply on these right now and wont have anymore in till after the Midwest Fly Fishing Expo. So be quick if you want any of these because it's first come first serve. DO NOT reply to the post or with a PM because I'm busy getting ready for the big upcoming show and don't have a chance to check each site every single day. If you are interested in these then EMAIL ME AT steve@midwestcustomflyrods.com with your name, zip code, and how many of each style box you are interested in and I will get back to you ASAP. Thanks

Steve

Generally, I love the microslit design. I have both C&F and one of the new McGill & Wright boxes, and they hold most hook sizes really well. I have a problem with size 22 and below popping out all the time though. I wish there was a foam that was just a little grippier that would keep those little hooks from sliding out. Ironically, I bought my first one as a midge box, and I have a bunch of loose flies trying to escape every time I open it up.

It is very rare however that I have a larger fly pop loose. It has comparable holding power to my older nubby tack boxes, which did great for me.
The great thing about catch & release is that the fish can live to grow even larger.
In fact, I've known some fish to grow quite a bit larger before the fisherman even returned home.

Just a heads up because these went super fast last time, I will be getting in a new supply of these boxes this week. Not sure exactly how many of each are coming in but there will be some of each. I will post as soon as they get here.
