Anyone own one of these tackle bags?

 

I usually keep all my tackle in my own boat but sometimes I go fishing in someone else’s boat and need to gather up some tackle for the trip. I’m looking at the one that holds 3 of the Plano 3700 boxes.

 

Thanks

I have a 3700 and 3600 size. I use the 3600 size more and keep it tethered to my kayak rather than a crate. 

 

I have both the standard and edge type boxes. The weekender bags will fit 3 (3700) and 4 (3600) of each standard size box. However, I fit one less in each with the edge boxes as they do not flex to easily remove from the bag when full.

 

The front pouch fits a good amount of plastics in bags and gets a little difficult with clam shells.

 

I live very close to the Plano factory so these were purchased at a steep discount at their outlet store. I like both and would buy at full price.

That's a little bit over kill for what I'm looking for.

Plano has several options.  

 

RW, i would be embsarrassed to show up to fish as a non boater lugging that thing around. I don't need 70# of baits to fish a day.  ?

Plano B-Series?

4x3700 or 6x3701 plus pockets for plastics and incidentals.

I have a variety of different utility carriers that hold either 4/8 3700's with no extra pockets.  Super cheap and easy to grab what I want.  A lot like this:

...but with an open top or easy flip top.

My favorite are like this one, but hold 8.  Great for hopping on the neighbors boat.

 

That one holds 6 and is $17

I actually carry my stuff in a duffle I got for joining the NRA years ago.  The side pockets hold all my plastics and I can fit 6 Plano 3600's in there along with a square spinnerbait box and some small rectangular boxes for hooks, weights, and other terminal tackle.

I've decided to try this one.  Its more than 50% off at Midway USA right now.  I also bought one as a xmas gift for my Father, added a couple lures, and then got the free shipping.  It fits 3 of the 3700 size boxes and has side pockets for accessories/soft plastics.  Plus I like the overlapping cover to keep rain out.

That's an amazing deal.  I thought I did well getting the 3500 bag for $18!

 

Speaking of the 3500 bag - it's tiny, which is exactly what I wanted it for.  You can pack enough in it for a good day on the water and use it in a small kayak or a jon boat two-up without tripping over it.

I use a Plano weekender in 3500 size for bank and kayak fishing. So far it has been perfect for the last two seasons. Holds two double sided 3500 boxes or 4 individual boxes. Plenty of room for small terminal tackle box and tools. Usually holds my wallet,keys,and phone as well. 

 

More tackle than you would ever use on an outing.

While I won't actually be using this tackle bag I received until next spring, I had a chance to look it over well yesterday.

 

Initial thoughts are that I got a bargain for 19 bucks.  I like the fact that the cover goes over top of the bag with clips instead of a zipper and I also like the front/side pockets for accessories.

 

However, I did notice that there isn't a back pouch/pocket.  There's nothing on the back side.  Plano could have added another storage area to the back of it pretty easily.
