I've owned a Richardson 4-drawer box since 1973. Before purchasing the box, I carried many fly boxes which I interchanged as the season progressed and hatches changed. As I believe you can guess where I a going with this, one day I found myself in the middle on a heavy mayfly hatch without a single fly to approximate he naturals. Suffice it to sway that I've not found myself in that situation in 38 years.
Never met Mr. Richardson in person, but through several phone calls before his passing, I found him to be a true gentlemen. When I inquired about some modifications to my box (light holder), he gave me a fair price and asked that I make the check out to his church. I was so impressed by this selfless act that I doubled the amount of the "donation".
