RE: new tackle box
redsox,
Can't remember the Plano Series #. Sounds like you have the same series. I have 2 Plano's,both are double hip style boxes. Latches on side, 3 trays on each side when you open. I love em. Had at least 5 in past 15-20 yrs. You flip it open and you got 6 trays and a nice belly for worms bags and misc.That series of Plano is getting hard to find around here. All the big fancy boxes and soft packs are flooding the market.
Soft packs are nice,but your always pulling out plastic boxes to get to bottom box with that lure you want. I use soft packs for light salt water fishing and hunting. If they get wet they are subject to mould and can get a little skunky inside. With the Plano,if it rains you simply close the box. My .02
