A good tackle box

[livemusic]

Just thought I would post about this tackle box, one of the Plano Guide Series boxes, because I have used it for several years and it's still working flawlessly, all the latches and whatnot. I use it to have a pretty universal assortment of the baits and rigs I use. The top bulk compartment is very useful as a catchall storage spot for lots of things. The flip-up tray on top is useful for hooks and weights, tools, whatever you need regularly. Reason I wanted a tackle box in the first place is in case I do not fish in my boat and use my Pelican pondjumper boat or jon boat or someone else's boat, or bank fish, I can grab this tackle box and go and this serves as all I need or a good start. I can add other pouches, cases if needed.

 

Have you found a good tackle box? Here's the one above...

Thats the one I use because of the flip up top. But I have the soft side. 
 No one else has that design.

I haven’t used a tackle box like that in many years. I prefer soft sided tackle bags. Lighter weight, with shoulder straps and side pockets for my tools and accessories. I used to live near the Plano factory and outlet store. Got all of my tackle storage containers at substantial discounts.

I like it. I'm starting to collect additional boxes that won't fit in my bag.

I use a plano tackle bag and I really like it! It is about 1-2 years old, so I can't find it on the Plano site or in my pictures, but I'll get a picture later. I really like it! It's a blue-black camo tackle bag, and it can fit 5 big tackle boxes, a smaller one for spinners and UL stuff, a fly box, and everything else I need!

I'm partial to the BPS Extreme Qualifier bags. The 3700 size can hold five standard depth boxes, I've got one standard depth and six 3701's in it. Front pocket can hold a single 3600, or three (yes 3) 3601's.

 

Still leaves the two over-sized side pockets for miscellaneous gear.

The monkey & I outgrew a box that size years ago....

Yeah almost the same with my bag. I forgot the front pockets.

I've been using an XL Drake blind bag I got in '93 iirc and then my stepson and family gave me a very large Cabela's fishing bag that holds six boxes. I try not to take too much stuff.

 

The Drake bags will hold some weight; they're made for boxes of shotgun shells.

I have been using a six tray Plano 9606 tackle box for at  least 20 years. I wish I could find another one. It has been in the boat during some bad rain storms and nothing got wet as long as it is closed. This is one reason I won't switch to a tackle bag.

I use this Kastking tackle bag as a tournament co-angler.  It's not big enough to be obnoxious, but will hold 8 x 3700 boxes and 4 x 3600 plus tools and other stuff.  If you skip the 3600's in the side compartments, you can fit tons of soft bait bags in there.
