A real practical fly box design
I have used these boxes since 1996, and can honestly say that they are the best and most practical boxes I’ve ever used. Salmo hook fly boxes are light – but tough as nails. They are slim, which means that you can pack a couple of these sweet little things without looking like someone packing a carton of milk in his chest-pocket. Best of all, they are NOT watertight – which means that your flies can dry out after a soaking, thus minimizing corrosion spreading to your other flies, as would happen in a sealed watertight box. It’s not rocket science – it’s just logic.

This might look like a conventional fly box. But notice how the grooves have been turned 180 degrees compared to conventional boxes. This way your chosen flies are easy to see and it’s easy to select what should be the “bite” of the day, as the flies don’t sit on top of each other.
