Co angler tackle management question

[TxHawgs]

Fishing my 3rd tourney this coming Thursday so still trying to figure out what works and what doesn't as far as my tackle management. What I should or shouldn't take, how much is too much and what to carry it in. First time out I took my smaller BP extreme qualifier 360, well along with that came a spinnerbait box a pretty big plastic container with my plastics in it and a lunch bag. Fit ok in the boat but was very disorganized. Last wk took my bigger BPS xps front load bag, small plastic container for plastics and lunch. Bag was too big to fit in back boat box so it had to ride in front of me. If boat had a console it might not have fit. Seems like I need a bag for everything and then something else for my plastics, then lunch and should be carrying my rain gear somehow or in something, another bag yay. Just worry these guys are gonna be like wow so I try to pack as light as possible. How are use carrying hard baits and terminal and tools but then your plastics. I can't fit them in both esp if I'm gonna stick with the smaller 360 bag. Spinnerbaits and buzz went in one of the plano boxes even though I hate those things. And what are u carrying your chatterbaits in? I put em in the plano spinnerbait one last wk but like I said hate it. And what ya putting your rain gear in and lunch?

I am rocking the Plano guide series 3700. Holds 6 3700s inside and 1 on top. I also bring along a soft plastics bag. As for lunch I just pack a few snack and toss a couple Gatorades in my boaters cooler if its okay with him. I have a spinner/buzzbait plano 3700 box that I really like and it is plum full of baits. The bag is big, but I have yet to have someone complain, and it will sit under my legs for the rid if need be. Could probably cut back on plastics enough to get them in the pockets of the bag and still be good to go.
