Overview
The fishpond Tacky Double Haul Fly Box is a double sided fly box in Burnt Orange, built from recycled plastic with silicone strips on both sides that hold up to 287 flies without foam.
This box uses fishpond's silicone strip system instead of foam slots, so flies grip by the hook point rather than being pushed into slits, which matters for barbless hooks that tend to fall out of foam. It's rated for a wide temperature range and closes with a magnet rather than a latch, both aimed at anglers who need the box to survive a full day in wet, cold conditions on the water. The 287 fly capacity is split across two sides, useful for keeping nymphs and dry flies separated in one box.
- 287 fly capacity, double sided
- Silicone anchoring, no foam
- Magnetic latchless closure
- Made from 100% recycled plastic
Who it's for
Fits fly anglers who want one box to carry a mixed selection through a full day on the water rather than switching boxes by fly type. Less useful for anyone who prefers traditional foam slot boxes or only carries a handful of flies.
Pros and cons
- Holds up to 287 flies total
- Silicone strips grip barbless hooks securely
- Magnetic closure needs no latch
- Made from recycled plastic
- Large capacity means a bulkier box
Performance notes
The silicone strips anchor flies by the hook point on both sides of the box, the mechanism fishpond uses instead of foam, and the box closes with a magnetic seal rather than a latch. Recycled plastic construction and a stated wide temperature range are aimed at keeping the box functional in cold or wet conditions on the water.
