Fly Box for Soft Hackles

Recommended Posts

I keep my size 14, 16, and 18 soft hackles, flymphs and wets in a plastic compartment box. I don't like to crush the hackles in a foam fly box, etc. But I am not able to carry as many as I want in the plastic boxes.

How do you do it..what is your method for SH's....Dano

I employ a rather special box. It is a gift from Hottuna - Hey Hottuna..... We exchanged gifts on first meeting. Perhaps he'll share the story of the patch.....

The inside has spring loaded lids with quite a number of compartments.

I saw that box of Fred's and it is very, very nice.

 

So far I'm making due with plastic plano boxes. They make a neat one about the size of a think hockey puck that has 5 compartments in it. Trying to do one of those for caddis, one for mayfly, etc. etc.

That box is an Okuma 16 compartment box...I'd been holding that patch for a while waiting to give it to someone. Fred you earned that box in the jungle and I'm sure there are many other guys and gals in here who did or are doing the same as we speak( hey Ashby!!!)
