I lost my fly box on the Tulpehocken yesterday. Actually lost two boxes one with dozens of midges and the other with a few drys. They were in an LL Bean case. Let me know if you find them. Cheers
 
Just a little trick for keeping boxes in place. Add velcro tape to the inside of the pouch and put the opposite piece of velcro on the box. Stick em together when you put em back in your vest or pack. The more velcro the better. Some stiches might be necessary depending on what type of fabric the the vest or pack is made of. But this works well and stops them from dropping out when leaning over or falling in.
 
Don't give up on finding them too quickly.

I once lost a box of caddis on a a stream on the Tug Hill plateau.A few years later a buddy of mine who lives there called me,and told me that he saw a notice in a local paper about a found fly box.I called the number and unbelievably it was mine.
Picked it up in person and took the guy out for steak dinner!!!
