Any information on this pig skin pouch.
It came with a set of scalesand a damping pouch, but I was wondering if it came with any thing else originally.
Approximate size 7"×5"×2"with 3 compartments.

Thank you, Allrounder
Looks like I'm missing a fly box and cast case
:doh: any idea what the cast case would have looked like?

Harry, thats a nice item, I think the green coloured pocket is your cast case, you will easy find a neroda fly box, although they still fetch a good price.

Will do Phil :Thumb: it really is a lovely item and in great condition, just needs a bit of feed for the leather.I was hoping it was going to be a float and cap winder that went with it but can't complain really. :eyebrow:

I’m sure you could get one made to fit, it deserves something like that.
