Tako Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Here's my nearly complete go-to nymph box. Closeup of the black stretchflex wing case. How does it look? And my 'needs lots of work' lake box. I don't like fishing lakes much, and can usually get by with leeches and chonnies, so this box typically gets shafted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMasson Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Well, after seeing the Doc's boxes I know that mine don't come anywhere near measuring up. Yes, I've got fly box envy. I've been slacking off this winter....working weekends all winter really sucks. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tako Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 Thing is, DBT is fishing about 15 more nymph patterns than me, from the looks of it. Then again, I've got five other boxes I haven't taken pics of yet :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bigbadbrent Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 i only fish normally 3 patterns, none of which are yours, but i seem to have quite the multitude of different patterns that i end up giving away to people on the river Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bigbadbrent Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 nope...just demonstrating how all those grooves need to be filled... btw, don't you find u crush hackles by putting dries in a slitbox instead of a compartment? I love slitboxes, but i find they crush hackles Will post my boxes when my 2 Bugger Beast boxes come in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tako Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 Word to the compartments yo. All my 'top dries' are compartmentalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love slitboxes, but i find they crush hackles Will post my boxes when my 2 Bugger Beast boxes come in no...i angle the flies that are larger than #10...any less and they sit just fine for me without ruining...(on a side note, i've found that steaming and preening your dries brings crushed or warped hackles back to life)...
