Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Who has suggestions for a nice large fly box ? I am just carrying bluegill flies, but I want one big enough to hold a large assortment so i know what I have. Also when I go away on fishing trips I carry a little of everything to make sure I have some back up to find out what they are biting. Thanks

DAVID;;  LOOK UP FLAMBEAU TACKLE BAGS;;; I HAVE ONE; THATS A PERFECT SIZE !  CAN HANDLE 3 BIG PLASTIC BOXES;; PLUS; 3 ; OR 4 SMALLER BOXES IN THE MAIN COMPARTMENT;; THEN'' THE ZIP OUTS; INSIDE IT;  CAN HANDEL THE OTHER SMALLER ITEMS;; ALSO ;; 2 OUTSIDE POCKETS; ON THE ENDS; THEN ALSO  2 BIG OUTSIDE POCKETS; FOR THE REAL NEEDY ITEMS;;   THIS BAG HAS SERVERED ME VERY; VERY WELL OVER THE YEARS..  I HAVENT REALLY FOUND; A BETTER TACKLE BAG;; ANY WHERE..  WHEN I GRAB IT; ON THE GO;; I KNOW I HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED !!

Big fly box for less than $10. Using Plano 3707 one compartment utility box,  hot glue 2 mm  craft foam to bottom and lid then hot glue 3mm  craft foam strips to the lid and bottom foam.

That is an awesome selection

… excellent idea!

Thanks everybody.
I use old flip open VCR boxes I got from the video rental place many moons ago. Glue some foam inside, and they hold a bunch of flies. For day to day fishing, I find an altoid tin or two works better.

I use Umpqua pro guide their  great fly boxes and I also have some 3m boxes and Wheatley boxes hope this helps you
