Hareline Flip Cap 4 Small 2 Long Compartment Box

Description:

What it is

A clear, durable plastic storage box with flip caps and six compartments, laid out as four small sections and two long sections. The lids close firmly, so it works both at the tying desk and in a vest or pack without spilling. Its sized for keeping a days worth of flies organized by type.

What to tie with it

This isnt a tying material you put on a hook; its what you use to sort and protect what youve tied. The small compartments are handy for separating dries by size or stage, and the long compartments fit longer-profile flies so youre not crushing tails or hackle. It also works as a simple gift box when youre handing a set of flies to someone.

Flies and the fish they're for

Use it as a working box for the patterns you actually plan to fish that day, and swap flies back in only after theyve dried so you dont trap moisture in the box. The long compartments make sense for streamer daysthink trout in rivers, smallmouth in creeks and rivers, or schoolie stripers in moving waterwhile the smaller compartments keep dry flies sorted for trout on tailwaters or freestones. Its just as useful on the water as it is on the bench when youre staging the next batch of flies.

How it compares
