Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 2, 2008 Super User Posted July 2, 2008 got one of these bad boys today at walmart for 45 bucks. sure has lots of storage. what the heck am i gonna put in this thing?!?!? and how much does yours weigh fully loaded? Quote
Super User Sam Posted July 2, 2008 Super User Posted July 2, 2008 I take as little tackle with me as possible. However, if I get carried away, I can have 30 pounds of tackle, if not more. Eight (8) tackle boxes is a lot. You will tire yourself out carrying this thing fully loaded when you will use only five or six baits when visiting your local pond. After you load it check out its weight on your bathroom scale. I bet it weighs almost as much as you weigh. And when you go boating you will have to place your feet and legs on top of this monster. But, now that you have it you can have fun filling it up! Quote
Super User Hookemdown. Posted July 2, 2008 Super User Posted July 2, 2008 Dave, I've got the smaller red bag and I'm in the process of getting and even smaller one. But like Sam said, the fun part is filling her up! Quote
CFFF 1.5 Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 I believe my Okeechobee Fats bag weight around 40lbs. It is jam packed with the 8 boxes, 3 really small boxes on one of the side pouches. 1/4lb spools of line and a spinnerbait wallet on the other side pouch and extra bags of soft plastics in the back mesh pouch. Have fun filling this thing up. Quote
Aaron Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Is that the big green one with the small red light in the main compartment? That's the one I have. Mine is packed full of Falcon boxes in the middle and plastics on both ends, with tools and stuff in the front pouch. I use the sunglass holder to keep my spare spinning reel spools in. I really like mine but it is almost too big to carry around. I only take it with me when I am going out in a boat. Otherwise it stays home or in my truck. I have a smaller PLano tacklebox that I carry most of the time when beating the banks. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 2, 2008 Author Super User Posted July 2, 2008 yeah, i bought it as a place to keep all my tackle, and then when i shore fish, i can take out whichever boxes i'll need and just carry those. Quote
Daiwa Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 This is the one I used to have, before it got stolen. About 500 bucks of tackle in it, and it weighed about 50lbs over loaded. Quote
wagn Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 i use this bag all of the time. it's in my opinion the best deal in large storage bags. If i'm heading out to shore fish i'll bring something smaller, but in my john boat this bag fits nicely and has enough room for everything i need Quote
Evan Pease Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 I keep all of my hardbaits, hooks, and sinkers in mine, excluding spinners(ive got two boxes for them). It probably weighs around 30lbs. My plastics weight about half that after I downsized but I leave them in the boat storage. I used to have 3 bags but now Ive got one bass bag and 4 360 boxes with my favorite baits in them. The bags are the BASS bags you can get with a subscription. Theyre really handy. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 3, 2008 Author Super User Posted July 3, 2008 just loaded it with all my terminal tackle and hardbaits. i put a few packs of *** in the deep side pockets, and im gonna put some tools and bandaids in the front pocket. Quote
rwf56 Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 I have one of these also . Fished a tournament a couple of weeks ago and carried it . Must have weighed 50 lbs or so . The boater sugested that I put it in his storage box . It fit ,but just barely . The problem was , when I needed some thing out of it . Had the devil getting it back out . Needless to say , it didn't go back in . Will hold just about any thing you think you will need . Trouble is , finding it in all the hiding places . Best of luck ! Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 3, 2008 Author Super User Posted July 3, 2008 i weighed mine in at 19lbs 9oz fully loaded. guess mines not quite as heavy as some, but im not sure if i wanna take this with me shore fishing. Quote
