Signature Tool Bag

I used to use a large tool box to carry all my fly tying gear, but found it cumbersome when I was going on a trip or to the river. This bag carries everything I need.

I have had several travel tying bags, some just plastic containers, some expensive zippered bags. Price to value, this is by far the best. I teach tying to Project Healing Waters, Trout unlimited and several club seminars. I also travel during summer in my motorhome to fishing destinations. It holds everything I need in small amounts. It won’t hold my Norvise, but handles my Regal and Dyna-King perfectly along with their bases. I even have a small materials caddy in it. It’s easy to transport and carry. I have a Fishpond for my Norvise but usually teach with my Regal which works out well. I ended up purchasing 5 more for my PHW Students; they love them.

It's a great, small bag for a tying night at a club or store. I bought one of J Stockard's Tungsten Carbide vises (https://www.jsflyfishing.com/products/tungsten-carbide-vise?variant=43376486416613), with both c-clamp pedestal bases, as a travel vise. It fits nicely in this bag along with a collapsible, rechargeable LED light, some vice accessories, a basic complement of tying tools and a selected quantity and variety of tying materials. It would probably not be a great bag for everyday general storage or to transport a large quantity and variety of materials or for a weeklong trip to an exotic location where you plan to tie everything you need on location, but assuming you are planning to limit your tying to a limited number of select flies or you are going to a tying event where many materials are available this bag is an excellent choice.
