Default fly boxes

Hi what do you keep your size 18 to 22 nymphs in, At the moment I'm using a slotted box but it doesn't hold them well.

You need a slotted foam box that's designed to hold flies of that size.

These are good - I've got a couple of them ...

Or - you could obtain a box of your choice and cut a piece of foam to fit - not difficult. Add your flies to the foam place the lid on top and Bob's your Uncle and F...... yor Aunt.

There are a few animated avatars here but they stopped them a while back.
