Hi guys, wanted to show you the fly rod cabinet i built. Got tired of "fishing" for the right rod out of the closet and wanted to get all my gear orginized and in one place. The original plan was to put it in the shop, next to my boat so when i was ready to go fishing i could take what i needed out of the cabinet and put it right in the boat. But, when my wife saw it she told me that it was way to pretty to leave in the shop and that it was going in the house. When my wife "allows" something from the shop into the house, that means something to me. So now it sits in my office. Rod tubes, dip nets and old wading staffs on the left and, on the right, drawers for vest, reels,leader and tippet materials, and all the other gadgets and stuff fly rodders seam to collect. Stocking foot wadders in the bottom drawer - boots are still left in the shop. Did'nt think about it until after i was finished but going to convert one of the drawers into a cigar humidor. Now when i get a last minute call to go fishing i don't have to make a mad scramble through the house and shop trying to find everything, i just go to the cabinet.

Awesome work as usual, Capt. thumb

I see that collection of hand made fly boxes is increasing too. Now maybe you can spend a little time actually fishing, LOL!!!

Ah, it's full of wood working, photography, fly fishing, and fly tying. Lot of stuff on there like you have mastered.

I know, I know it sounds so Girly....but it's legit with the Fly Fishing Community! smile
