\"OLYMPUS<\/a>I think this is a story that a lot of flytyers have been through: When I started fly fishing I purchased flies and brought them with me on a trip, noticing which was good or not. Then I started tying myself,\u00a0looking at the experience I had with the flies and was happy with that, but I was tying up a lot of different patterns to ensure I wouldn’t be empty\u00a0of a particular size.<\/p>\n

Then came the next step: bringing with me tying gear to tie on-the-spot, or if the weather was bad! But, I brought with me stuff in plastic bags, and everything was messy, and the bottles of varnish had to be wrapped and things was all over the place. So: there are some cases you can buy out there, but they are expensive, and they don’t fit what you want, so after work today I got one of these briefcases that are meant to transport cameras and so on, and got to work (these should be able to get a lot of different places)<\/p>\n

The inside is well padded and the material is “pre-cut” in small squares that you easily can tear off to get your bottles and\u00a0gear into.<\/p>\n

\"OLYMPUS<\/a>I have half the briefcase for my bottles of varnish, the vice and all the other things I need when I go outside my normal tying station.<\/p>\n

\"OLYMPUS<\/a>The other half I can then fill up with hooks, dubbing, hair and everything else I need for that particular trip. Of course: this is not the ideal place to bring along capes, but I’ll see what I can do with the lid there to get room for some more.<\/p>\n
