Overview
A two-sided fly box measuring 4.1 by 3.0 by 1.2 inches, sealed with a rubber gasket and fitted with clear lids on both faces so flies are visible without opening the case. The body is built to float if dropped in water.
Gonex sells this fly box in three sizes and three colors, with this listing covering the smallest size in orange. Double hinges let each lid fold back a full 180 degrees for easier access while tying on a fly, and the foam insert is dense enough to hold flies without crushing them.
- Two-sided, double-hinged clear lids
- Rubber gasket seal, floats if dropped
- 4.1 x 3.0 x 1.2 inch size, 3 colors available
- Dense foam insert for secure fly storage
Who it's for
Fly anglers who want a compact, budget-friendly box to carry in a chest pack or pocket, particularly for smaller flies in roughly size 10 to 22 with standard or wide gap hooks. It suits ice fishing and jig storage too, based on how buyers describe using it beyond fly tying.
Pros and cons
- Clear lids on both sides for seeing flies without opening the box
- Compact enough for a chest pack or pocket
- Priced well below comparable name-brand boxes
- Foam slots run small for larger flies like salmon patterns
- Water resistance not confirmed in the field by every reviewer
Performance notes
The foam slots run deep enough for small nymphs and wide-gap hooks but come up short for larger salmon fly patterns.
