Wasn't sure if I should have posted this in tackle thread or not?  But question on how does everyone store thier flashers and flys?  I have been storing flys separate from the flashers because when the flashers are put in my plastic tote with the flys attached a lot of flys get squashed.  Or don't worry about it?   All crinkled up and such. 
Heres photo of what I have been doing, with the flys tossed in a smaller container and when we head out I just pre-load the flasher/fly combo's I want for the first couple hours. 
Is this kosher?  or any easier way to keep/store the flashers with fly on without getting squashed or having a very large plastic bin?  Been doing this for a few years now looking for a 'better' way.  Thanks.

I buy 1" clear tubing at lowes and cut it in 5" pieces.  I cut slits in both ends.  Feed the leader through the tube, wrap the leader around the tube in the slits and it keeps them in great shape.  I also label the outside with sharpie.

The slits dont' bother the line any after a few uses?
