On my float tube I have a "special" place to put the
wet flies again, so they dry as I go.

My special place generally is my fly patch but then sometimes that gets filled up. Sometimes I loose some flies off the fly patch. I like the idea of a special box but I am not sure where to to keep the special box because all my pockets are filled with fly boxes.
Those special flies i tie for a trip generally end up in some odd ball location which I then forget where it is when I am on the water. Plus I generally can't remember why I thought they were going to be special.
Just need to change my ways so I don't carry so many flies with me. But for some reason that is a hard thing for me to do. I must be one of those FF horders. I am waiting for some fly fishermen to show up on one of those TV shows about obsessive horders.
