Celebrating Local Creativity and Unique Design in Fly Fishing Gear
Turrall, renowned for their commitment to fly fishing excellence, is proud to unveil a distinctive new range of fly boxes, each transformed into a canvas for original artwork by a talented local artist. Debuting at this year’s EFTTEX, these boxes promise to become instant classics among anglers and collectors alike.
The first in the this line of boxes is Steve McCracken a passionate fisherman and talented local artist from the south west of the UK. His street art approach and knowledge and dedication to angling come to the fore in his original designs.
A Canvas for Nature’s Inspiration
Each fly box in the new collection is more than just a practical tool for storing flies—it is a piece of art. The local artist behind this project draws inspiration from the rivers, woodlands, and wildlife that define our angling landscapes. Their hands bring to life dynamic scenes: leaping trout captured in mid-air, intricate mayflies resting on reeds, and the dappled light of dawn on water. No two boxes are exactly alike; every brushstroke and line is individually rendered, ensuring each piece is as unique as the angler who carries it.
Hand-Crafted Design Meets Practicality
While these boxes are visually striking, they remain true to Turrall’s legacy of craftsmanship and function. Constructed from durable, lightweight bamboo, the boxes are built to withstand the rigours of riverbank. Foam secure flies safely, while the artist’s designs are protected by a resilient, clear coating—keeping them vibrant and enduring through years of use.
A Fusion of Artistry and Passion
This collaboration exemplifies Turrall’s passion for both fly fishing and local artistry. By commissioning a local artist, Turrall not only champions homegrown talent but also celebrates the shared heritage of creativity and outdoor life. Each box is signed by the artist, adding a personal touch and guaranteeing its authenticity.
Unveiling at EFTTEX
