The Tacky Original Fly Box is a tough and sleek polycarbonate box with a clear top, a magnet closure system and a patent-pending silicone rubber insert. The silicone insert is more durable than foam and will stand up to load after load of new flies. The cleverly arranged rows of slots have cutouts with a unique teardrop shape that makes insertion easier. (See Other Details for box specs.) Recognized for its ingenuity and innovation, the original Tacky Fly Box won the Best In Show award in the Fly Box/Storage category at the 2014 International Fly Tackle Dealer Show.

Tacky is the best I have 10+ boxes from tacky
Great fly box are use this on backpacking trips when space and weight are concerns. Typically I use tacky fly boxes on normal traps but I use the Orvis one as they have spots on both the lid and inside the box for flies. I’ve converted almost every one of my Fly boxes to tacky

The best system for storing flies
I've used many boxes and pads for storing flies and this system is the best. Fishpond is a no-nonsense company with incredible products and the fact that they purchased Tacky speaks volumes about the product. I bought this item due to their new affiliation with and ownership by Fishpond, knowing it would be nothing-but-quality.

Great product.
Tacky makes a great product. The silicon was a game changer for holding flies. There are some other companies now coming out with the silicon, but I like that the Tacky are thinner. They came out with a waterproof, breathable box now that I want to try. It's not cheap, but it's well worth it.

Very good for nymphs and wet flies.
One great product. I like it most for nymphs and wet flies. It holds them real well and it's easy to get them in and out. I will buy the big bug box next for my woolybuggers and large wets.I would not use this for dry flies as it may crush the hackle some but would still be much better then the foam boxes.

Unquestionably the best box on the market
I've had my share of fly boxes over the year but no of them compare to these. I have 5 of them in various sizes and configurations while a dozen of so lesser boxes collect dust in storage. I love these boxes.

Best Box Out There!!!
Love this fly box. Best one out there. It's compact, and holds 168 (12x14) flies of all shapes and sizes with no problems. I have my dries in a separate box (not Tacky). I plan on getting one for my dries as well. The only thing I haven't tested is to see if this thing floats. Either way, you will be extremely happy with this box.

Tacky Fly Boxes are #1
The Tacky fly boxes are amazing. I own a bunch of them and they’re sturdy, there’s no memory like foam, and they hold a LOT of flies tightly! I’ve dropped them and the flies remain in the silicone which is awesome.

Difficult to attach flies
The box seems to be good quality except that I find it somewhat difficult to actually attach flies. Not sure if I’ll keep it.
