Grx Fly VestThis post was going to be a plea to see if anyone had found a fly box in their travels up at woodburn or killylane as i was sure i had lost mine. After two weeks of searching around the house and the car it finally turned up. It was inside my vest all along, hidden in one of twenty plus pockets and one that i'm rarely in.
This does beg the question does a vest really need this many pockets?

GRX VestIts funny how you get to know what is in each pocket isnt it? Having said that there are far too many in a normal vest and Im sure most of them arent used. One of my inside pockets is the exact fit for a snickers duo.

Mine has those little inside pckets for carrying leader spools and little holes to poke the leader through. Never use them.

GRX VestI had a wee plastic bag in one for fag butts Andy - up until last week when I gave up for good. I didnt realise that was what those holes were for FF

@sydb - well done on quitting, one of the hardest ciggies for me to cut out would be the one whilst fishing
@ff - all my leader goes into a special pocket so that they can get all tangled up together.

Glad your off them again Syd. I've had a relapse after 4 1/2 months without a puff!  You'll have to share your secret for staying off them.

GRX VestIts only been a week and a half Alan and its the patches, so far so good. Andy you are spot on mate, I enjoy them when Im fishing as well, its actually putting me off going fishing but I need to definitely stop this time.
4and a half months is a long time Alan, are you on them full time? I know what its like I stopped for 8 years once.
