Minimalist approach: Take two

Lanyards...
I have tried the next step along in minimalism, building a lanyard with clips and putting only bare nessecities on it along with a small fly box with a few dries, nymphs, and streamers.
I felt insecure at my local lakes, even though there was no reason to be...I had this secret feeling of running out of flies...

Here is a picture of the lanyard:


I have tried the lanyard minimalist approach and it just wasn't for me.

I like my double chest pack with 4 fly boxes and the ability to carry along a PB&J sandwhich and drink a little to much to not have.

( I usually fish for hours at a time, the lanyard does not really cut it if you need to have a snack or more than a handful of flies with you. It's a special purpose thing to me.)

Note: I know lanyards are supposed to have a break away link to keep from killing yourself if you fall and get hung up...This one is made out of rexlace craft lace which does not have a high breaking strength and as added insurance the knot used to finish the lanyard would pull apart if I was to fall and get hung up on a tree.

Tight lines!
