Man oh man, I could use a new tackle box.... 2025

Bassboss reply :

I have officially ran out of room in my current tackle box, the one having very little space to begin with, all my cranks, spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, hook sinkers, line, etc. are in this box (other than the 40 lures or so in the shoe boxes) . I need to get some tackle boxes for all of them, one for each category of lures, (hard baits, wire baits, soft bait, and hooks, and weights) What boxes and brands would you suggest me to get, all staying with in a 25-35 dolor limit.

What has the most room for lest amount of money?

go buy a bunch of these somewhere local- http://www.***.com/descpage-P3601.html do not buy them online and have them shipped(not cost effective)- get them at walmart or some place like that you will find them- buy several. Load them up with your tackle. For buzzbaits and spinner baits you may need bigger compartments those boxes are readily available as well-use a backpack(s) or any duffle bag to carry them. It will be very inexpensive and heck you may even look like a pro

And thanks for the tips about not getting them online.

Stringjam reply :

I agree with Jackall dude.....get the component boxes and just throw what you need in any kind of bag.

I buy these cheap insulated cooler bags from BPS (I think they're like $14 or so)....the 3700's fit perfectly in them.

BassFishingMachine reply :

Yeah tackle boxes are outdated.. , especially for bass fishing. Get yourself some planos, and a good tackle bag to store them in.

go to walmart and get one of the okeechobee fats tackle bags, they come with the boxes too. They have two different ones a smaller one for 20 and a big one for 40. I have had both and they both were awesome tackle bags.

IDbasser reply :

I have to agree with the rest. Go get some planos, the 3700's are great.

Bassboss reply :

Thanks kikstand, Great box for my hard baits!

kikstand454 reply :

no problem man.

theyre great for everything... can hold all your stuff if you put a few into a tacklebag, or if you need to go light or are fishing super particular, then one box can take everything u need that day.

FTOs are the best way to go.

IDbasser reply :

Makes it easier to have the boxes that fit into the bags. When I go fishing with someone else, I can grab certain boxes out of my boat and put into a bag to take.

nah theyre not too good on wire baits, i use a spinnerbait binder for those. binders work good for plastiics too. also... like the other guys said, theres other brands of boxes that maybe better or not, but plano was the first/most popular and so theyre all referred to as plano's.

check out the bps proqualifier tackle system or any of these in the 370 or 3700 size and itll pretty much solve all your problems.

Great link!

I'm think I'll get one of these for my soft baits:

Bassboss, you have two think about the long haul. I have about 8 tackle boxes and bags because I continued to run out of space. If you just spend a little more now and buy something really worth your wild you will save money in the long run. I have the Browning tackle backpack that I bought at Basspro. This thing is awesome, you can fit everything. Tackle, raingear, lunch and more plus it is hands free. I also has a detachable bottom portion. Great for shore and boat fishing. I do both. Then you can get a Falcon or Plano tackle specific box for any type of lure. For soft plastics a have four of the falcon file bags that fit in the backpack with additional space. Check it out.

I use a Plano 3503 for my spinnerbaits. It holds a bunch and fits perfectly into a soft-sided insulated lunchbox so I can just throw the strap over my shoulder and go.

Yeah, I use that box too, works beautifully.

ejtaylor822 reply :

I agree with others. Get some planos (or Falcon) and some softside bags. I use the 37xx and 36xx boxes. I like using the 37xx for storage and when traveling. I use them in my boat bag when I will not be carrying very far - 8 of those full can get heavy. For arouind the shoreline and rivers I use the 36xx in my Cablela's backpacker which is excellent for walking and carrying.

.dsaavedra. reply :

if you really want the most storage for the least amount of money, go to walmart and get the Okeechobee Fats 1200 bag, its olive green in color, costs $40. it holds 8 size 3700 boxes (included) and a bunch of other pockets built right in.

this bag isnt all too fun to lug around shorefishing, but it will definitley hold all your stuff.

X2 I really like mine it holds everything except plastics which I carry in two binders. I replaced two of the boxes that came with it with falcon boxes for jigs and spinnerbaits.
