Plano Tackle Boxes

[Pugs]

has anyone got one of these http://www.planomolding.com/7771-00.html and if so are they worth the cost? Certainly look the business.

I have a couple of the small tray type and a large tray type and I would say they are very good.

Real hinges at the back and the snap fastenings have not snapped off yet. They are made of a tough but flexible plastic that should not crack under moderate abuse.

Had that exact one. Loved it. Never a problem until I lost it over the side in rough weather (careless placement). Replaced it with the same one except sliding drawers rather than the seperate boxes. Like that one as well.

 

They take abuse well and keep on keeping on.

 

Worth the cost? Hard to say since I didn't find a price on that page but if the cost is in line with other good tackle boxes then an unqualified YES.

 

As a matter of fact, you can see the one I use now in the lower right section of this picture. The clear plastic part has some duct tape over it from where I dropped an anchor on the top and chipped out a piece of the plastic. Covered the hole and it is still doing fine.
