I've been brainstorming for the past two weeks on what needs to go with me to Brazil for the peacock bass trip with
Nomadic Waters (I leave on Friday!!!) and since I'm limited to 38 pounds of luggage, it's been a process of needs vs. wants. I'm an infamous "heavy packer" so it's been helpful that they have a great packing list which I've been following. I needed to figure out a lightweight fly box to carry a few dozen flies down with me. I really don't have space for a full sized fly box and then it hit me...
Solution = Vedavoo Fly Wallet in Mesh Shell I reached out to Scott Hunter and not only did he build up a couple of Core Fly Wallets with T.F.M. patches, but also included one of the new larger Fleye (12") Fly Wallets, which is the one I'm filling up with large jungle lies from
Umpqua and
Fly Geek Custom Flies. He also sent along a couple of patched mesh shell
No-Kink Reel Covers which I'm looking forward to using as well.
Scott did some step-by-step photographs of the build process and this is a good reminder that he has both the Comrade and Retro Fly patches in two sizes (2" and 3") on his
website that you can add to any custom made gear for just $5 extra.
