Tackle boxes

#1 Post by flynnboy »

Guys

I am sorry to be dominating the airwaves at the moment.... but all of a sudden I have a number of issues.....

Can you recommend a tackle box that will cater for both hard lures and soft Plastics ? I don't want it to be too cumbersome for scrambling over rocks.

It's not the website, but Henry's also have the large one. Initially planned on getting the medium, but the large is perfect, about 12'' x 6''

One word of warning.

Lots of the DIY stores now sell cheapish tool boxes which look perfect for storing lures. What you need to be careful of is that a lot of these boxes will actually react with the soft plastics and cause them to dissolve. I'm told that its due to the "release oils" using in the moulding process of the box. Good for hard plastics and general bits & pieces though.

Chinese takeaway plastic box, works a treat once you dont have a load of lures to get tangled up and fits perfect into waders.
