Best fly boxes for the money?

[Zkwhit89]

I’m looking for some fly boxes that won’t break the bank. Any recommendations?

Tacky makes some nice ones.

Boy that's a tough one, there are just so many options...I find these are like backpacks...I buy them, then sell them, buy different ones, etc. because I'm always trying to find the right size, dividers, etc. I've tried about 392 different kinds...I finally settled on traditional aluminum boxes for my freshwater...and some large plastic ones for saltwater...

To be specific what I've landed on is (4) Wheatley boxes (2) dry and (2) nymph and (2) Cliff's Bugger Beast for saltwater...but that's just me...

Are you looking for fly boxes for storage or boxes to put in a pack/vest to use on a river?

Boxes for my pack at the moment

Montana Fly Co has a floating day box with great storage. It’s called the ultra light I think?

There’s a bunch of MFC boxes on Sierra Trading Post for sale at a very good price right now.

IMO, you can't beat these for the money. I have several, and some of them I have used for years. I like them a lot better than some more expensive boxes I have, and you can sometimes even get them at Walmart. They come in at least three sizes:

I like the CF designs boxes. if I can find them on sale. Love the micro threaders especially when its getting dark and I need to tie on after snapping my 12th fly off....

George Daniel has a good story. At a world tournament a child from Czechia placed third using an Altoid can he glued foam into.

There’s your cheap fly box.
