That’s my plan. I am pretty much the exact same way.im glad to hear that others have done this as well

Yea exactly what I have then lol. I honestly don’t like that bag at all for a lot of the reasons you guys mentioned

Hmmm. I’m not sure. It’s about 3 years old

So I’ve always been a soft plastics guy. Moved from Florida to Iowa. New water new seasons and temps. So I’m gonna throw spinner baits, mini max chatter baits, and jerk baits and top water frog. Most of the season. I’m gonna try to stay away from Texas rigged stick baits and creatures and weightless flukes as long as I can till the ponds become trashed with scum and moss. Anyone else done this before or doing anything similar?

Very nice! What I’m considering doing is a Plano 3600 and putting baits by color. Pairing different baits of the same color in a spot. So I can maximize what I carry in a small sling pack

Love it! Years ago when I was starting out fishing I used boxes. But I’m busier in life now and making my set up fast and easy for quick trips. And have a box so I was considering trying it again. Love your set up

So I did a search and found a lot of older articles and posts. But as I build out my bank fishing bag. I’m debating trying a 3600 Plano with just the baits I need for a trip. Thoughts and advice?

Wow very well done!

That’s the exact bag I have now and have had for years lol. I think mines the carry all tho. But still. It’s great bag just now what I want anymore

One of my current 3600 I modified with a dremel too. Mostly because I needed a way to carry a couple spinner baits

Wow thank you! Excellent response. I’m trying to keep things as simple as I can. And definitely looking for a small back pack or sling bag to kind of limit me on what I can carry. But I wana have a nice setup where I only bank fish now. No boat or kayak anymore

I’m basically carrying a couple lipless cranks, a jerkbait, hollow frog,a couple spinner baits, a chatter bait, a couple jigs. Some terminal tackle then soft plastics. Some creatures, some flukes some swim baits and stick baits

Haha I love that

So I’m gonna get a new sling bag this weekend as I hate carrying my current tackle bag on my shoulder. I generally carry a 3600 box and a small 3500 box for terminal tackle. And my soft plastics. Stick baits, flukes, paddle tails, and some creatures. How much stuff do you carry when one hopping for a morning or the day?? Any bag recommendations?

Thank you! I appreciate that honesty. After a ton of reading on here last night. I may try a quality mono on the casting set up or just replace the braid as you said and run a leader.
