Fly box photo request?
I think it would be very informative and valuable if people posted pictures
of their fly boxes and gear for different types of fishing!
On Hans' new photo page, he has a pic of his fly box (follow the 'North
America' link), and that photo is full of information, and things I want to
learn from!
For starters, and I notice that he does not have a tremendous diversity of
flies, and has a lot of the same version, and in what looks like similar
sizes. I also notice some things about how he organizes his boxes, as well
as the type of boxes he chooses. Having fished with him, I know he is one of
the more prolific catchers of large fish (just look at some of those
photos), and it might be very interesting to see the similarities between
his fly boxes and folks like Willi's, etc, who also seem to have figured it
out.
Anyone interested in taking pictures like Hans' of their fly gear and
posting them on a site (Stan, you willing to host?) I bet a cross-comparison
might bring up some interesting things.
