Terminal Tackle Storage

[ckurdziel]

What is everyone's method for storing terminal tackle? I'm considering upgrading all of my boxes to the Buzbe boxes or keeping my existing 3700's and buying the Plano Edge Terminal box.

[J Francho]

I use the Plano Edge Terminal box.  Works great for me.

I used the Academy terminal box for a season. It’s actually pretty nice for the price ($16.99). I ended up switching to the Plano Edge terminal box. I got mine on sale and before the current price hike. It’s pretty awesome but I don’t think I’d pay $60 for it.

I love my Plano terminal box! I choked for a long while on the price, but since I bit the bullet and got one I love it. I have tried a lot of other things and always came up disappointed.

Plano edge.. works great

Same, Plano Edge 3700 terminal box. And a couple of 3500s with extra retainers for the specialty stuff like drop shot or as bank fishing terminal boxes.

I use a couple standard 3600 Plano Edge boxes for terminal tackle. They work great. Everything stays where it's supposed to and they cost less than the terminal boxes.

I just put most of my terminal tackle in slide-top metal boxes, label them, then into a 3701. They're not air/water tight, so moisture is still wicked away by the silica gel-packs.

My terminal tackle deal is a bit on the extensive side.

But I like it that way.

Made this video explaining how & why 3 years ago.

Still using this exact deal.

I have 3 different terminal boxes a 3700 thin Plano Edge for my jig heads

a Pro Latch 3700 Thin for all my weights

and for my hooks I use a Plano Custom Divider 3700 thin 

Extra stock is kept at home and refilled as needed.

I target smallies and fish from a kayak most of the time. Right now I’ve got a flambeau 3500 size box I keep my terminal tackle in. I’ll switch things out based on the day. 
 

I basically utilize 3 “day” boxes for all my fishing. 3500 for terminal tackle and two 3600s one for my hard baits and one for soft plastics. If I need over that it’s not a good day anyways

I’m a pond hopper. I use the gamakatsu 3200.

You know I get it.

You have not cornered the market on that deal.  I was going to say that sticker is straight and all the rest are Jacked !

I use the Plano 4600 guide series 2 layer box, 1 for hooks and a second for weights, beads, bobber stops, etc.. smaller sizes on the top and larger or heavier on the botto:.

2 boxes fit into a tackle bag with 3 side poaches for extra line,  tools etc. 1 bag holds everything needed regarding terminal tackle.

I mainly use two...  Plano Edge 3700 Thin and a Plano Edge 3700 Terminal.  The Terminal was a game changer for me. 

 

I also have a small old Plano box that I use when fish from the bank or just need a quick grab of something. I keep a few of everything in it. I am not sure what size it is but it is smaller than a 3500. 

[ckurdziel]

Thanks for all the input! I think i'm going to get another 3700 edge. I did order the Plano terminal edge back in July and ended up returning it. I can kick myself now for returning with how much more they are now...

[Catt]

I have 4 ea 3500 series boxes 

 

One is bullet weights from 1/16-3/8 oz., nail weights, & bobber stops.

 

One has flipping-n-pitching-n-punch weights which double as Carolina Rig weights. Beads, swivels, & bobber stops.

 

One has straight shank hooks, offset round bend, & EWG hooks. Weedless Neko hooks, Wacky hooks.

 

One has heavier punch hooks

 

If I ain't punching or Carolina Rigging I don't carry all that extra weight.

I keep bullet weights, hooks, split shots, snaps, and beads in old drug store pill bottles.  Then the pill bottles go into a 3600 Plano box.  The 3600 Plano box gets moved around from bag to bag depending on if I'm fishing out of a boat, or walking the bank.

[dgkasper58]

plano edge 3700 terminal in the boat- absolutely love it!

 

I used to have it stuffed with 10-15 of everything but now I keep approx 5 of everything I want, so I don't need to lug as much around.

 

Keep the extra terminal in the academy terminal box in the garage.  I really like that it being normal depth am able to store quite a bit in their compartments and holds the tungsten snug in the holders.

[Goldstar225]

Like others I have the plano edge 3700 terminal box.  I really like how it keeps everthing in place.

Man, this why I hate you guys and the BR forums /sarcasm

 

I had been thinking that someone should have a tackle storage system with plastic covers to keep things neat and had never seen the Plano Edge Terminal box. So then I'm browsing through the forums and 80 bucks later I have two of these things!

 

I think the price is a bit ridiculous, but I can justify it by saying I'm more than a casual angler. Now to update my will and leave them to my son ?
