Camo Tippet Fly Pouch

I've made some field modifications to the Tippet Fly Pouch I bought from you last year. I've modified the strap system by adding a small buckle. The buckle allows the pouch to be taken on and off easily, without pulling it over your head, or removing your hat. The nice thing was finding a way of forming loops with the extra strap material, which formed perfect holders for tippet spools.

I then took a set of Sharpie markers to the outside, to tone down the bright front section. I wanted a digital camo look, in hopes it will be less visible to fish.
