Overview
A double-sided ABS fly box in the X-small size, sealed with a silicone gasket and lined with high-density foam to keep flies separated and dry. Clear double lids let you see contents without opening, and it ships with a lanyard for chest-pack use.
One angler who waded into deep water reported the box let in some moisture despite the silicone seal, so treat waterproofing as splash and float resistant rather than submersion proof.
- Double-sided ABS shell with 180-degree hinges
- Silicone gasket seal for rain and splash resistance
- High-density foam interior keeps flies organized
- X-small size ships with a carry lanyard
Who it's for
Fits fly anglers who want a light, minimalist box for a day's worth of smaller patterns on a chest pack or vest. Less suited to anyone carrying large streamers or wanting a single box for a full fly collection.
Pros and cons
- Holds around 30 smaller flies per side
- Floats if dropped in water
- Clear lids show contents without opening
- Includes a lanyard on the X-small size
- Larger flies like wooly buggers barely fit
- Not fully submersion-proof per one review
- Latches feel a little loose to some users
Performance notes
The ABS shell and double hinge let both lids swing open 180 degrees, and high-density foam keeps flies from shifting or getting crushed in transit. The silicone gasket handles rain and splashes reliably; deep wading immersion is where a couple of users saw slight seepage.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Dr.Fish X-small fly box fully waterproof?
It's sealed with a silicone gasket and handles rain and splashes well, but at least one reviewer found it let in some water after deep wading, so treat it as highly water resistant rather than submersion proof.
Does it come with flies or a lanyard?
Flies are not included. The X-small size ships with a lanyard for attaching to a pack or vest.
