Favorite Plano EDGE box?

Featured Replies

Which of the Plano EDGE boxes stands above the rest?

 

I have the 3600, 3600 Flex, 3600 Terminal, 3700, and 3700 Deep. The Flex is really great in my opinion. What's your favorite?

I have the 3700 Jig box, and while I hated it for jigs, I removed 2 of the holders and spaced the 3 remaining evenly and I have been using it as a spinnerbait box. I even ordered a second for the same purpose, yes I carry way too many spinnerbaits.

 

The 3700 flex box does work great for my spinnerbait making components, because I created spots to hold blades, beads, etc, but also 2 bigger spots to hold the wire frames I use. That said at the price point, I would need a very specific reason to buy another.

For the most part, I use the basic 3700 pro boxes that came with my tackle bag. They work for just about everything. I have the 3700 spinner bait and buzz bait box and I like it from the perspective that it holds. Decent amount and I organize them by weight with 1/2 and up on one side and 3/8 on the other (for the most part).  Buzzbaits lay down in between the rows. The downside is that I can only fit 35-40 in there plus 6 buzzbaits. I’m fine with that number of buzzbaits but I’d like more spinnerbaits. 
 

The 3741-1 is a neat box I just got. Double deep and can be 1/2/3 compartments. Good for bigger packs of things without cutting the dividers on a regular 3700. Not sure how I’m going to work it into my lineup yet but I have some thoughts. 
 

the one I’d advise against is the worm pack. Double deep 3700 with slanted dividers. Intended to hold worm bags, it’s just an inefficient use of space. I just kvd speed bags instead. 

I recently got the new Jerkbait box. I think it holds about 20. Pretty nice so far.

I think I just use the 3700? No clue honestly what exactly it is I’d have to look.

What are y'all using the 3700 Deep for? I only recently branched out to the 3700 size, including the Deep model, and I'm thinking it's going to be handy for bigger hard baits like glides.

@jimanchower I have used it for pretty much everything. After accumulating a massive amount of jigs, 2/3 of my deep boxes are dedicated jig boxes. The third has some assorted stuff that I will refine once I find more time. You can put almost anything in there, other than wire baits.

Square bills, both big and small.

@LrgmouthShad interesting. Why a deep box for jigs? My jig box is a standard 3600 EDGE and I bet I have 30 jigs in there. A 3700 Deep could probably hold well over 100.

Two fold. 1. It’s what I have 2. I want to categorize some jigs really specifically, and a deep box allows me to pack a lot of jigs into one “category.” For instance, I have a compartment that is 5/8oz Oldham jigs.

I wish Plano would sell naked flex boxes with no dividers included. Once you own a couple you're set on dividers for life, and I usually use no or maybe 1 divider in a flex box.

The Jig box is my favorite. I use it for bladed jigs though. I have way too many jigs to use it for regular jigs.

@Bluebasser86 is not lying. I watched his jig box video. I question my own mental stability for watching the whole thing
