As the release of the new Star Wars movie (The Force Awakens) approaches, it got me thinking about the two things in my life that I find absolutely fascinating, and how they could possibly be blended together. I started to do a little searching online and found the funny meme at the top of the page as well as the picture below. I also realized that if you can dream up some sort of idea, chances are, someone else has also had the idea and already started a Facebook page for it.
So in an effort to merge two things that make me incredibly happy, here are the fruits of my labors.
Return of the Jedi Fly Box.
I ran across one of my lunch boxes from elementary school and it felt like a shame for it to just sit and collect dust in my parents basement. So I did the only thing that seemed to make sense...I turned it into a fly box.
Star Wars streamside box.
I found this small tin box at Target the other day and decided it needed to cross over to the dark side and become a fly box for my son.
Star Wars inspired flies.
While I was kicking around some things that might improve this post, I decided to attempt to tie some flies that could relate to some Star Wars characters. These are the best I could come up with but would really like to see other ideas if anyone feels inspired. I think most of these are actually fishable too and not to far out there in terms of color combinations.
Stormtrooper Gurgler
Yoda Wooly Bugger
Darth Vader Wooly Bugger
Chewbacca Easy Peasy
Kylo Ren Gurgler (Kylo Ren is one of the new villains in The Force Awakens).
