Here you go, have a lot of different boxes, I also have different flies loaded for different Trout species and conditions. Of course its all about how and where you use em.

You can use a de-wormer for that.

Here is a small box of bone fish flies that I bring along when I am in Cuba the Caribean, Mexico or Grand Cayman. The bottom left flies with the grizzly hackle are the one's that I have had the most success with. I have about a dozen or more boxes of flies. Just thought I would post something different than just local flies.

Here is one of my boxes of gomphus and damsels. This pic is from about 5 years ago. That box has changed over the years. But basically is the same content. But with much better patterns at least on the damsel side. The gomphus are one of my favorite go to flies in the BC Interior and Caribou lakes.

And that's just the chironomid boxes. There's another 7 boxes of various stillwater stuff + 7>8 boxes for stream work. And then there's the back up fly boxes.
