How to make a stripping basket for fly fishing. Learn how to make a cheap and collapsible one for your boat or for land use. Using a popup laundry basket, some hose, weights, and duct tape, you can make an easy to store and use stripping basket for under $20. A stripping basket is used to hold your fly line so it does not get tangled around objects, get under your foot, or lie in the water. Especially when on a boat, a stripping basket will keep your cast from getting tangled at the worst possible moment.
