Will you be tying flies in this shed? Or just storing them.
Seems to me the seasonal idea is too complicated.
For each season you'd need a new section for each major
category: streamers, dry flies, soft hackles, plastic worms,
etc.

I'd make a shed with a pressure-treated wood foundation.
Green copper-treated joists floating on 1-1/2" railroad
gravel. I'd make counters all the way around with damaged
solid core doors (cheap at the lumber yard) where the doors
rest on a 2x4 ribbon screwed to the wall, and sit on top
of K-Mart plastic drawer towers in front. Over-hanging fly
shelves would be slanted, with ripped formica scraps forming
the mini-bins. And I'd only have one section for streamers, etc.
Not many.

Make the walls out two layers of plywood: one layer of 1-1/8" tongue and
groove sub-flooring (glued at the joints) covered, with 2' overlapping
joints, with an roughs-sawn exterior grade plywood over that. Glue
a rectangular 2x6 ribbon to the wall tops, so you have something
for the 2x4 rafters to bite into. Cover it with 5/8" cdx and metal
roofing. Now you've got something you could pull up onto a stout
trailer and move, when the time comes.

It would need to be big enough for the coke machine (filled with
beer) pool table, wireless desktop and sound system too. Need
an air mattress cot too. And mini-fridge filled with rye bread
mustard and sausages. Flat screen TV?
