Steely Box

Got a discounted flybox with an order of hooks and decided to tie up a new Steelhead box with patterns I've had success with.
4 Sides should give me lots of room.

Got one side finished today.

    Purty. I like that type of box. Post a pic of that box after you use it for a while. Mine usually start out organised, but after a few trips out, a lot less so. But anyway, nice looking assortment.

    How did the person who invented the first clock know what time it was?

    you got them all in the fly box upside down!!!
    i can never find the time to sit still long enough to tie up that many. usualy its a few now and than just before i plan on using them.

    I'm jealous. My fly box looks like everything fell out and the flys were randomly thrown back in(which isn't to far from the truth).

    Nice job.
