Buying Guide & FAQs

Organizing Terminal Tackle

Compact organizers work well for hooks, swivels, jig heads and other terminal tackle, while larger trays provide more room for plugs, jigs, soft plastics and rigging components. For hooks, leaders, swivels, sinkers and other small rigging components, browse our terminal tackle collection.

Tackle bags make it easier to carry several removable utility trays together, while backpacks are a practical option for anglers who need hands-free storage when fishing from the surf, jetty, pier or shoreline.

3600 vs. 3700 Tackle Boxes

3600- and 3700-size tackle boxes are two of the most common utility-tray options for organizing fishing gear.

3600 Size

About 11" Long

A more compact option for anglers who want easier portability, smaller tackle loads or storage in tighter spaces.

3700 Size

About 14" Long

A larger option that provides more room for bigger lures, additional terminal tackle and larger fishing setups.

Exact dimensions, depth and compartment layouts vary by manufacturer and model, so check the specifications of the individual tackle box before ordering.

More Buying Tips

Different types of fishing call for different tackle-storage setups. Inshore anglers may only need a few trays for jigs, soft plastics and terminal tackle, while offshore fishing often requires more room for leader material, trolling tackle and larger lures.

Keeping gear separated by technique or target species can make it easier to find what you need quickly on the boat, at the surf or between trips. Use removable utility trays for modular storage, tackle bags for carrying multiple boxes together, and specialty organizers for items such as leader spools and smaller terminal tackle.
