What do u fellas consider is the best way of organising bits and bobs like Frigs Fanny ( if you use it ) , line sinkant such as fullers earth , and fly floatant eg Gink , when on the river?

I reckon i spent too much time in recent years on the river looking for stuff like that in small vest pockets instead of being a bit more efficient. Many seem to be using lanyards these days - any good , or are they a pain the backside that make you look like a girl?

I think i have seen suction cups or something before, that will efficiently store Gink etc upside down?

Used to use a lanyard but after a while it started to annoy me so i ditched it. I now have a suction cup for floatant and just keep my fullers earth in a pocket and I clamp my forceps to my wader straps. The trick is to only take what you will need and use, don't fill pockets up with stuff that will never see the light of day. That way when ur looking for something it will be easy to find.

What suction cup thing do you use and what product does it hold

the vest is better as i need to carry a rain jacket in its back pocket, cant do that with a lanyard.

I have both but my vest is used to carry my fags and evrything else is on the lanyard thats in the warmer weather, for the colder weather its the lanyard plus wading jacket.

I'm with Spider... how does the suction cup thingy work

A lanyard, but slung across the chest and under one arm, bandolier-fashion, rather than necklace-style in front of you. This allows you to swing the whole thing round behind you and out of the way until you need it, then you just swing it back. This way, you carry only the essentials, rather than all the bits and pieces which, with the best will in the world, finish up in the pockets of a vest. There seems to be an immutable law of nature which dictates that the more carrying capacity you have, the more you carry.

All in the little flip oot pocket inside the front of my waders.
The specs fit nicely in there too.

All the 40lbs or so of other stuff goes in the weskit!

I'm trialling a chest pack next time I fish.
