Know before you buy
The latchless magnetic closure is surprisingly secure and designed to stay shut while in your vest or pack. It allows for quick, one-handed access on the water, which is a significant advantage when you need to swap flies in a hurry.
Yes, the patented silicone anchoring system is designed to grip fly hooks firmly, preventing them from shifting or falling out even when the box is jostled. It provides a much more secure hold than traditional foam inserts.
The Tacky Double Haul is built with extreme temperature resistance, meaning the silicone inserts won't crack or degrade in freezing cold or intense heat. It is a reliable choice for year-round fishing in various climates.
Absolutely. The recycled polycarbonate used by Fishpond is engineered to be just as tough and impact-resistant as virgin plastics, ensuring the box can withstand the typical wear and tear of river use.
While the box holds 287 flies, that number assumes a mix of smaller nymphs and dry flies. If you are loading it exclusively with large streamers or bulky terrestrials, you will need to account for less space to ensure the lid closes properly.
