Tackle Organization in a Boat

[Long_Rod_Silvers]

For anyone with a cooler and/or a tote that has room on the lid, I threw one of these on my cooler and Love it. Very simple, but effective. The magnetic portion comes in real handy when you're in a hurry. Creekside sells them w/ their logo on it, but they can be found online, Madison River (for example) sells them for $12.

Very similar to mine.

For some reason this makes me wonder if there's an opportunity to design a tote where the lid comes off and can be flipped upside down and used as a stripping basket.

Edit: patent pending.

Sure, here's a few options for online. If you're near the Issaquah area Creekside had them (last time I was in there) with their logo on the magnetic portion.

@Drake - FYI Confluence fly shop in Bend usually has them in stock if you want to see one up close, they are handy.

How did I miss the tote idea? Love it!

I use a simms waterproof bag for the boat. It has dividers for extra reels, fly boxes, small battery for the electronic. It has places to hang pouches on the side but I keep it simple to reduce line snag as others have mentioned.

Harbour freight has awesome tool bags.
