Re: [VFB] RE: Hook Storage
Wayne, I've been builing a serious inventory for 34 years, but tying for 49. I have a few photos of the extreme sizes on my website: http://www.fantasyflies.com/hooks_fantasy.php Go to other pages to see what I tie on them.

And those are the places I remember. I also have lots of hooks scattered in tying kits- specifically for one type of fly, like in the shrimp-drawer or the #32 kit. Sometimes I can find the hook I want on the same day I start looking. And fly storage and sorting is just about as bad.

I've been placing hook box labels in compartments with hook but think I will make labels for outside each compartment.
