Abstract: A light-weight, portable, container which facilitates the storage and retrieval of flexible, elongated elements, such as line, cord, rope, hose, wire and the like is disclosed. The line storage device incorporates a base portion which enables the device to stay in a stationary position while in use. Extending from the base portion is a conically-tapered, flexible, body portion that terminates in a closeable aperture. The aperture provides an opening into the interior of the line storage device through which a first end of the line or other elongated element is passed as it is stored or retrieved. The line is linearly fed or "stuffed" into the device by the operator through a "bottle-neck" that is created by grasping the body portion near the opening of the container. As the line enters the container through the bottle-neck, it is effectively wiped clean and dry.
