So I weighed my tackle today and it came in at a chubby 32.5lb...How about you?

 

I did it a while back and my tackle bag weighed 47lbs I think

I don't want to know...I probably be ashamed of my self.

I'd have to go to a drive on scales at a truck stop

Right at or perhaps even a little more than the safe / recommended capacity of the Old Town .  . . . .

Not bad for a starter kit.

I think that's just about what my terminal tungsten bag weighs ?

 

OK - I might be exaggerating a little for effect . . . . . .

No kidding. I need to figure out how to cut some weight on my travel bookbag. It's a bugout bag from when I was in the military a holds a insane amount of stuff. Really the soft plastics and giant swimbait type lures are what kills you. Pounds of tungsten and hooks don't help either.

I gave up on tackle boxes. The front half of the boat holds 3700's. If your still weighing a single tackle box your just warming up.

;-)

My plastics weigh 35 #s

Wow. Y'all put me to shame. My *current* bag only ways 10.9 lbs.

 

But that's just what I'm using right now. I try to keep my setup as light as I can in my kayak. And I try to bring only my "best", or most productive stuff. And I'm finally carrying some hard lures, cranks (lipless and lipped) - one 3600 size box.

 

If I were to weigh all of my tackle, it would easily crest 50 pounds. But most of it sits and never sees use....

That's it!! ..... just teasing. I have never taken the time to weigh all my tackle, all I can say its very heavy. lol.... 

Last time I weighed my tackle bag was on a flight to Mexico. That was back in 04 and it was a very scaled down version and weighed in at a dainty 83.5 pounds, enough that I had to put a couple 3700 boxes into my clothes bag or pay an overweight fee   Now I'd have to load it all into the boat and truck and weigh it on truck scales.

I flew to Tx last May and my big luggage bag was 60lbs of just fishing stuff. So I had to shove 10lbs of plastics into my carry on to make weight.

My home scale has a 330lb limit so I will have to get back to you on this!

I don't even want to know. Wild guess would be probably 200lbs. 

Right around 60 lbs of soft plastics

i dont have a clue on all of the tackle i have, but the stuff that comes on the boat is in the 120# range...

My plastics alone weight at least twice that.  I'll put it this way, if I take someone fishing with me I have to unload about 50lb. of gear to keep my boat from being overloaded.
