Lost black C&F streamer box at the Yuba
Permalink  
 


Anyone see a black C&F streamer box at the Yuba? I lost it yesterday — screwed up an otherwise pretty good fishing and beer drinking day. If found and returned, I'll happily tie the person a dozen flies and buy them a six pack of my favorite beer.

I feel your pain. I lost a black C&F box of midges, nymphs, and pupahs on the Yuba yesterday too.

Sorry to hear Cliff — that's rough. Hopefully they both turn up.

Given that a fly fisher loses a box per outing with a certain probability, carrying three boxes as I do seems to inflate my risk. I'm thinking of switching to one C&F system box and making inserts for each particular river & fly type. Anyone try the C&F system boxes with the removable inserts?

Sorry to hear about that guys.  I hope they turn up too.

I lost a flybox once and I know it can be heartbreaking when you think about all the time and effort we put into tying our own flies or the money we spend buying them.  I have attached my flyboxes to my vest with pin-ons and now only have to worry about dropping flies into the water when I'm tying them on.

I lost a box on the Yuba a month ago and got ity back in the mail 48 hours later.

I put my phone number on my boxes, rods and sunglasses. Hopefully I will never have to try my system.
