MacP Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I've started reorganizing my gear this winter. I have a truckload of 3700 and 3730 boxes and some 3780s. I've pretty much got all new 3701, the new slim box. I like them they hold enough gear and I can fit more boxes into the same space as the 3700/3730s. I'll be keeping my huge baits/line in the 3780s and my cranks in the 3730s still, but I'd like to find a better option for my spinners. I think the only option is the 3707 box. Anyone have any notes? Larger and smaller spinners/buzzbaits work? Will the bent Cavitron's fit? Quote
Super User tomustang Posted December 11, 2013 Super User Posted December 11, 2013 I don't use many spinnerbaits but I'm a fan of the plano spinner/buzzbait boxes, they have a little bit of adjustment so you could probably fit the bent buzzbaits in there with one clip holding them in at least. Quote
doyle8218 Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Plano makes 2 3707boxes, 1 is just spinnerbait and the other is spinnerbait/buzzbait storage. It is the best way to store a lot of baits I have found. The only problem is the very small buzzbaits(1/8) because the clip has 2 cips to secure the bait and you can only attach 1 clip, but it still holds them well. No problem with any size spinnerbaits. They come with 2 spinnerbait holders and 1 buzzbait holder. They hold a lot. 1 Quote
Super User MarkH024 Posted December 11, 2013 Super User Posted December 11, 2013 I use a Falcon Spinner/Buzzbait box. Holds I think 15-18 of each. It's enough for my selection of both lures, as I don't throw them a whole lot. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 11, 2013 Super User Posted December 11, 2013 I use two of the FTO spinnerbait wallets. Very compact, and easy to deal with in the boat or out of a tackle bag. Quote
Bass Junkie Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I own one, and use it. I don't really like it, but I don't have a reason to hate it either. If you have room I'd opt for one that allows vertical storage of the lures without compressing the arms Quote
5fishlimit Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 I bought one last year, and no longer use it. Not because I didn't like it but because the little plastic tabs that are on the inserts used to hold it secure in box broke. They are smallish dovetail type tabs. I dropped the box once while losing my balance while bank fishing and that was that. I now use a Plano 3704 and like it. Quote
MacP Posted December 12, 2013 Author Posted December 12, 2013 I picked one up yesterday. Seems to be alright for the price. I like that all my boxes are the same 3700 size too. 26 Spinners and 13 buzzbaits is plenty of storage for me too. Quote
KDW96 Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 I am curious about the clips that hold the bait. I know you compress the bait to fit. But will being stored this way for a winter season or so, do anything to the baits blade arms?And do the Calvitrons fit well in the buzzbait side? Quote
RAMBLER Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 I have one and like it. It holds my spinnerbaits well and they are easy to see (versus the hanging type of box). I don't have cavitrons so can't answer that for you. Quote
fishguy613 Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 i got a spinnerbait box in 3600 size, keeps everything really neat and organized. Quote
jerzeeD Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 I have one and like it. It holds my spinnerbaits well and they are easy to see (versus the hanging type of box). I don't have cavitrons so can't answer that for you. This for me too ^ Quote
MacP Posted December 13, 2013 Author Posted December 13, 2013 Thanks for the replies. And yes! Cavitrons do fit. My wife said the box looks pitiful. I've only got about a dozen spinnerbaits and 7-8 buzzbaits. I think she just gave me an excuse to fill the box 1 Quote
slainempire Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 i use the 3607 spinnerbait box and love it. not sure if i want to get the spinner/buzz combo box, i dont use many buzzbaits. Quote
