I hate being weighted down with loads of gear. I like to carry one rod and reel . Nylon etc goes in pockets of my waistcoat.
My mate brought me back a bumbag from florida that holds the rest.

The trouble I have is I am a maniac for flies and fly boxes.
I have therefore decided to dedicate one standard box to grayling flies for the forth-coming season.

Was thinking of limiting my fly selection to the following;

Dries. Klinkhammers, f-fly, griffiths gnat.
nymphs. pheasant tail, stoneclinger type, case caddis, hears ear
Through in a couple of shrimps and good to go!

What do you think?
What would you add/take away?
