    Another vote for C&F threaders. C&F also makes some matching "threader" fly boxes, and they can hold pre-threaded flies. Really convenient as you can thread multiple flies on a single threader.



    Only problem is I don't use the C&F boxes, so I need a place to stash the threaders. I want them to be convenient, but protected as the tips are easy to bend out of shape. I'm always looking for places in my fly boxes to stash them, but only a few have a decent spot. I made a little foam "holster" but they don't stay in very well. This shouldn't be hard, but I haven't created an ideal solution.

    Anyone have a DIY C&F threader holster?

    I probably should buy one of these and attach it to a fly box, but I'd love to have a threader hanging on my vest where I could always get to it.
