In the fishing section at Walmart they have
inexpensive plastic tackle boxes that can even attach together. I like
these because the compartments are adjustable unlike the bead boxes. You
can adjust them to the length necessary for your tandems. I need this
feature for the different kinds and lengths of saltwater flies I tie. You
can store it in the back of your car or truck.

Subject: Re: [VFB] 2-Fly Rig
Storage
STEVE,
Are you asking how to store the tapered Leader with both flies
attached??? I cannot think of Anyway to do that, especially if the "bob" fly
is a dryfly....the hackles would get smashed,thrashed & trashed in short
order.When i fish two fly rigs, and i'm done fishing for the day. I simple try
to "secure" both flies in various line guides on the rod so the set up is
ready to go next Morning. When the Trip is Done I simply remove both flies,
stick them in the "Drying Patch". I snip off the "extention Line" from the
Blood Knot then reel up the leader onto the reel spool...unless the Leader is
gone, then it's into a Line recycleing bin at the local Tackle store.
You might be able to rig something with a Plastic storage box from a Bead
Store...say a box measuring 3 1/2 X3 1/2 inches & about an inch
deep....coil up the leaders with the flies attached Carefully & store
them inside the box. For myself I find it takes little time rigging up for 2
flies when I'm fishing....but that's my view on the Subject...

has anyone found that works well in storing these rigs without crimping the
mono and easily attaching the flies securely?
