The best for summer smallmouth fishing

,
July 9, 2007
By brooktrout
"If you like to wade down the river on hot summer afternoons fishing for smallmouth, this item is perfect. You can store a nice variety of crankbaits, spinner baits, topwater lures and it's perfect for storing live hellgrammites, should the artificial action slow down. The way it folds down also creates a decent work surface when you're waist deep in the river. I have owned two of these for over 15 years and they have been practically indestructable. I finally broke one this season by dropping a 16 pound boat anchor on it from about 3 feet (unintentionally). Even with that, it merely popped a on inch hole in the inner lid. I came here looking to see if I could purchase a replacement for it and was thrilled to see that they are still available. The two I own have been used hard and heavy for many years and have lasted far better than I would ever have expected."

Junk!

Disadvantages: Durability, poor quality
"The clear plastic lids are very brittle and broke before I used it even once. The metal latch had to be bent to make it work right. Over all a lousy product. Too bad,it's a good Idea. I wish someone else would make this. Hint,hint...Plano
I will be asking for my money back."

"Great idea BUT, badly made!! One door didn't close properly making it hard to lock unit. I was going to "fix it" when I noticed one half of the hinge was broken. Sending it back.. not sure whether to get another BUT I would spend $50 for one one these if only it was made of quality materials, not cheap plastic!!!"

Can't have enough of a good thing

Advantages: Ease of use, Style/Design, Performs well, Value for money
"My husband had purchased this product many years ago and used it often, but our recent move from California, having half of our household put into storage has left us with the question of "Where did we pack that thing?" So, instead of looking for it I purchased a new one, and I bought one for a cousin for a Birthday gift that he has yet to open. I'm sure he will be pleased with it's convenience as my husband has enjoyed the many uses of his, having a tray of sorts, and lures, etc., at his fingertips has been helpful when catching the "big one""

"Great for bank and boat slip dock fishing. No more walking off from or having to go back and get my tackle box where I set it down. More comfortable to wear than I thought it would be. Must have been designed by a serious bank fisherman."

"I purchased one of these 15 plus years ago to use when stream fishing. Its taken a serious beating and still holding up.
I now use it to fish off a personal poontoon and it really comes in handy as space is limited. Im ordering another for my son.

"I purchased one of these many years ago and it was lost in a move to a new address. I have been searching for this HANDY little box for years to purchase but could never find until now. I ordered one the minute I found it! It is PERFECT for pond and river fishing when you just don't want to carry around your tackle box."

Great product

"15 or more years ago Berkley marketed this item as the "Fishin' Partner". I still have the one I bought way back then for about ten bucks, and I still use it even though a bit of carelessness on my part resulted in breakage of one of the hinges. Now the lid on that side has a makeshift hinge made of package strapping tape. It has more than ample room for a good variety of lures and jigheads, especially when fishing for panfish or crappie. The larger outboard compartments are large enough for a small "leatherman" type combination tool and/or line clipper, and when folded down from its latched/closed position it makes a nifty little shelf ot work on. I was afraid this product had been discontinued long ago, but now that I've found a place to get a replacement for my broken one, I'll probably order one today."
