Leland on the C&F Design Threader Fly Box
Why is it summer hatches seem always come at the time of day that makes it near to impossible to see your tippet? If you understand the meaning or if you just want a quick way to get your fly in the air and on the water, you should grab a C&F Design Threader Fly Box. These ingenious little boxes utilize thin wire threaders to quickly pull thin tippet through tiny eyes of relatively small hooks. These are not just for the geriatric age fly anglers, because you can pre-load flies so when you need to change, bang they are right there waiting for you. Just run the tippet through the threader, pull the fly off the threader and there you go. In addition you have six rows of Micro-Silt Foam to hold even more flies. Bring on a late evening Caddis hatch!

Once you use a threader you’ll never go back! The C&F Design Threader Fly Box gives you so many options for loading flies. With the six “midge” threaders you can stack untold numbers of size #14 - #20 flies, store them in the holders, and then add an additional 138 flies in the 6 rows of Micro-Slit Foam. You should never go for want with this box! The rigid polypropylene plastic construction protects all your valuable flies while the rounded corners and a dimension of 4.9" x 3.7" x 1.3" make it easy to slip this fly box into and out of any pocket.

Leland on the C&F Design Small Fly Boxes and System Boxes
For the minimalist or for those that like complete order over their fly boxes, the C&F Design Small Fly Boxes and Small System Boxes and Inserts are the just what the doctor ordered. By using their patented Micro-Silt Foam (MSF) and downsizing box size the designers at C&F Design give you all options needed to fill a vest, tackle pack or just a shirt pocket. The MSF is designed for easy fly insertion and removal without the tears and rips associated with standard foam boxes and once this foam gets a hold of your fly it isn’t going anywhere!
The Small Boxes and System Boxes and Inserts will fit in any pocket or compartment in which you deem to be the proper storage of the day. The System Boxes and Inserts give you the options to mix and match streamers, dries and/or wet flies; simple switch inserts as the need arises. The Threader Boxes allow you to preload flies to increase your speed of fly replacement and least not we forget the ease of threading tiny eyes with tiny tippet. There is C&F Design Small Box or Small System Box for all occasions or need.
Leland on the C&F Design Fly Boxes
The C&F Design Fly Boxes, made to the highest quality specifications in Japan, are considered by many angling experts to be the best, most functional fly boxes you can buy. They are light, strong, and rigid to withstand impact. The Waterproof models, in Medium and Large sizes, not only protect your flies from corrosion with a durable silicone gasket and powerful locking mechanism, they are so strong, I wouldn’t worry too much about accidently stepping on one!
Each size C&F Box allows you to either custom select and interchange the type of foam panels you want to match your fishing for that day, or come in a wide selection in each type to suit your style of fishing. Whether you need a trout box for organizing and protecting tiny dries and nymphs, or a robust box to keep the salt off your favorite flats flies, C&F has your number.
The patented C&F Micro-Slit Foam has revolutionized foam-type fly boxes. The Micro-Slits hold fly hooks very firmly if dropped, or in wind, yet are extremely durable since the hook rests between the foam, not in it, so the foam doesn’t get torn up. Once you experience the attributes of a C&F Fly Box, chances are that you’ll dump your other fly boxes in favor of C&F’s!
