Brokentippet2 Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 Just wondering what everyone uses to carry there gear in/organize with. Tried an old laptop bag and it's not making the cut. Just thought I'd ask here before resorting to the $150+ for a travel bag Quote
ericlin0122 Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 Tackle box works great. http://www.wholesalesports.com/store/wsoo/en/Categories/Fishing/Fishing-Accessories/Tackle-Boxes/c/tackle-boxes?sort=price-desc&q=%3Arelevance Quote
lbrtacklesystems Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 I bought a used Simms hip bag for $40 on the forum and haven't looked back since. It stores a nymph box streamer box all my tipper hangs and the dries go in their own boxes in the front pocket. I put a large split ring through the shoulder strap at the right position for my mag release net to hang from. Very compact and carries often more than needed. simms headwaters sling pack, I have an older one but wouldn't change it Quote
lbrtacklesystems Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Oh crap.... Rambling without reading again!!! Fly Tying!! I use a converted aluminum case for valve grinding engines. Basically it's a slip out tool box that stores enough for leaving home base. Sorry for the ramble. Quote
angler Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 A 'found' pelican case now holds almost everything for travel. Packed pretty tight but room for all but my entire array of hooks and tools. So I now pack hooks just for what I anticipate tying. I've also used an old multi tray tackle box but I've pared down on the 'required' tools. Have used a purpose made pack-cloth travel tying case I've had for close to 30 years. Quote
SilverDoctor Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 I have a Fispond Fly Tying bag. Lots of see-through windowed pouches, tools pouch tubes for thread spools, Hook box, vise storage area etc. I have it loaded for travel for an extended fishing trip or fly tying demonstration. I used an old Hardy bag but this is built for tying and is so much nicer. Its loaded but a very handy size. There are a few companies that offer these type of bags. Quote
agbff Posted June 22, 2016 Posted June 22, 2016 Briefcase- gives you a nice sturdy platform to tie on if your riding shotgun Quote
chend Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 I have used a plastic tool box for several years but just like my gear box, it is getting full. Quote
jgib01 Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Fishpond bag looks awesome, but not sure I can justify another purchase at the moment, else I might be needin Über's basement suite. I might have to settle on the Renzetti case for my vice and a rubbermaid for material. Quote
