Cabelas Advanced Angler II Magnum Tackle bag size

[Cgolf]

I am looking to do an order tonight and need to know if the 3700 boxes will lay flat in the magnum bag. I am looking to replace the super magnum back killer bag.

 

The magnum will hold all the boxes I need for a week trip and I like that they front pockets will hold 3600 size boxes. It also won't take up as much deck space.

 

I just need the boxes to lay flat in the main compartment because vertical storage does funky things to my plastic boxes. I am a bit anal in my organization and all of my plastics are boxed so that they are straight and won't take a funky set when set flat, Rage packaging in a box lol.

 

Thanks

They will, but you'll not get as many in there - probably six stacked flat...a seventh if you put it on end. The Advanced Angler Bags are designed for on-end storage of the boxes; any other configuration will be inefficient.

Awesome thanks. That would work, I could lay the plastics flat and a crank bait box could be the vertical box. I use the Plano 4600 dual level boxes for plastics. Honestly I am not sure I would even fill this bag up which is a good thing I think, or I could pack a bit more tackle.

What I'd like to see is Plano coming out with a 3706 - the 3606 has six sections running front-to-back instead of end-to-end...so an end-up box would still allow the worms to lay flat.

That would be really nice. I am not a fan of the 3750 boxes they include with bags, haven’t found a great use for them. The old deep 3700 boxes work great for cranks as long as the trebles are rubberbanded together to make them easier to get out. 90 percent of my backup plastics are stored in the 4700 double level boxes. Gonna be a very sad day for me if they discontinue that box. I have more than I will admit too. 
 

wish they would bring back the falcon lipless box too. That was an amazing box.

I use the Owner Safety Caps on my cranks and jerks. Keeps the hooks from tangling and my fingers from getting pierced when tying on or cutting off.
