Got1Fishing Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 Hey fellas, I know some of you have already posted about these bags... but I haven't seen much on the 3700 series. This has made life so much easier on me--especially being a bank fisherman and co-angler. This bag fits everything I have except for some extra plastics I have in another book bag. I already had some stowaways for my jigs, so I have 2 extra Plano boxes that it came with. I'm happy to say I now have more empty space I need to fill up Here are some pictures: Quote
Bass Junkie Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 Looks like you've got a great system going, thanks for sharing! Quote
KDW96 Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 Ive been looking at the same bag. But id be using 3600 size boxes,running them the lenght of the bag as the one box you have pictured, Quote
MNBassFisher Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 Looking good! I have the 3600 and love it. I would have upped for the 3700 but I wanted to use the 3600 size boxes so I can interchange them with my tackle bag for my kayak. There is nothing better than having extra room that you need to fill! I like the idea of how you labeled each box. I have all my boxes organized but that would make it even faster to find what I'm looking for. For a little additional space (maybe room for another box) you might look into putting your weights and hooks into a shallow 3600 box. (1/2 the depth of the 3650 - I think the model is the 3601).

Kevin22 Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 Nice looking set-up! I have a suggestion though, look into getting some plano 3701 boxes for your skinny stuff like hooks and weights. They are the slim model and are roughly 1/2 as thick as a normal 3700 and hold a TON of tackle. I even use them for cranks since I never put more than 2 in each compartment anyways. Cuts down on some crank tangles as well, since they aren't flopping all around in the boxes. If you take out that lipless crank box and that terminal tackle and replace them with 3701 you will likely be able to fit another 3700 in there! My local shops charge a ton for the 3701 ($9-10 each) But amazon usually has them for $7 with free shipping, and when BPS, cabelas, and sportsmansguide run free shipping days I pick them up there for 5-7 each. WELL WORTH IT! Quote

BuffaloBass716 Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 How exactly does the number system work? Sorry for the newb question lol Quote
Got1Fishing Posted April 9, 2014 Author Posted April 9, 2014 Thanks for the good ideas! I'll have to try the slimmer boxes and see what I can fit. Quote

Sorry for the newb question lol 3500 series boxes are smaller (I see them as Panfish/Trout lure holders), 3600 series are an all around size where you can fit panfish lures as well as a lot of bass stuff, and then the 3700 series are meant for your larger lures (Bass/Pike). If you check the website or google it, you can see the size comparison and differences. On 4/9/2014 at 6:38 PM, Kevin22 said: Ha! I didn't even see your post until now!
