Crafted from a tree that witnessed centuries This handcrafted fly box is more than a vessel for your flies, it's a living story carved from ancient red cedar that took root over 700 years ago. Before first contact, before roads and railways, before settlers reshaped the land, this tree stood tall in a time when only the rhythms of Indigenous life echoed through these forests. Harvested with deep respect from a fallen giant, this cedar carries the scent of rain and resin, the memory of eagles overhead and salmon running upstream. Its grain is tight and weathered, marked by time itself, each ring a silent witness to centuries of stewardship by the land's First Peoples.
Cedar has long held sacred value among Indigenous nations of the Northwest. Used for canoes, longhouses, baskets, and ceremony, it is known as the "Tree of Life." To hold this box in your hands is to touch that reverence, to carry a piece of ancient continuity. Thoughtfully shaped and finished to bring out the natural glow of the wood, each box is unique, a tribute not only to fly fishing traditions but to the enduring legacy of the land we fish.
A legacy in your pocket. A story in your hands.
