Two foam sheets = $2

$15 at Michaels, and here's the results.

Dude! I was at michaels today and could not find the box.

Granted it was the michaels on city ave...but damn, i wanted to make this today! Next time.

Michaels is a maze. It took me a solid 15 minutes to find it. I have no idea if it's laid out the same, but the boxes were in the back of the store on the right, near the easels and whatnot.

Nice work!

How would you describe the structural integrity of said box?

Decent, I guess

Jay,

I have the exact same setup that I use for my kayak fishing and it has worked well. The box with foam sheet has held up well with no problems. It sure is nice for larger flies and all the topwater bass flies!

I scoped out the box the other night and am planning an add a leaf mod to my box. If someone is interested I'll post it.

Yep.
