This past weekend I came to the conclusion that I need a new tackle box. I've had the old one now for at least 16 years, maybe longer and it has served me well but it's showing it's age. Cracks near the hinges and latches. What I had was a Plano, guide series, model 1234. It held everything I needed and when loaded weighed about 30 lbs. Everything I need is in it. The problem is it's no longer made. So the search began for a replacement. Started out yesterday at Cabelas. Lots of Flambeau but nothing that would worked. Looked at some soft sided ones but not interested. They're too floppy and putting things back was a two handed job. They're selection wasn't the greatest, IMO. Gave up there and headed to the fishin' hole. Better selection but nothing quite what I wanted. Decided to keep a couple in mind in case and could get back later. By this time it was getting hot so decided to head home to the air conditioned comfort
. This morning I was out running a few errands and decided to stop in to wholesale sports to have a look. Plenty of time to head back to the fishin' hole if need be. Well, they had a really good selection, Plano's everywhere and all different sizes. Think I found what I need. Found a Plano, guide series, model 7592. About the same size as mine and I think some of plastic trays will fit right in. Won't know for sure 'till I get it to the cabin but think it'll do the trick.
