Benefits and key features

The Fly Patch Kowa focuses on quick access and secure storage. The grooved high-density foam holds hooks in place without deforming them, reducing the risk of loss or dulling of points. The rigid design and protective flap help keep flies clean, aired and ready to use, even during frequent moves along the river. You gain better efficiency on the water: instant pattern changes, clear selection, and reduced handling. Compatibility with standard vests and the additional attachment ring meet the needs of demanding anglers looking for a well-designed, durable accessory.

Usage tips

Attach the patch to your vest within easy reach for quick changes. Store your dry flies, nymphs and light streamers by groups on the foam strips, keeping a consistent organization (size, insect type, buoyancy). To avoid crushing hackles, insert the hook at an angle into the notched foam and leave a small space between each fly. After each drift, check the moisture of the flies and place those that need drying under the slightly open protective flap to promote ventilation. When wading, favor the patterns you use most on the front row for instant access. After the session, leave the patch open in a dry place to preserve the foam and prevent odors. Occasional gentle brushing keeps the picking surface clean and performing.

Testimonials

“Tested over a full season, the Devaux Fly Patch Kowa significantly reduced my fly change times. The high-density foam holds fine hooks perfectly, and the protective flap prevents flies from soaking up water in the rain. Mounted on the vest, it stays stable even in deep wading. A simple accessory, but incredibly effective for optimizing every spot.”
