JonC Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 What boxes are people using? My current box is on its last legs and I need a new one. I’ve been using one of these so want something similar but maybe a bit smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonC Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 Anyone got a yeti load out? look good but at £250 they should be. Also weighing in at over 5kg empty it seems a bit heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzook12 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I have 2 I use, one for shore and one fore boat, cheap but good...... This one for beach with the ruck sack system https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160884204387?epid=4027207478&hash=item2575722363:g:JDEAAOSwHNxZ7aUz This one for boat https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283556721336?hash=item42054c32b8:g:dQQAAOSw~llb9USO Can get everything I need (and the lad needs) in there JonC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike farrants Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 this for shore - also with rucksack attachment - adds pockets and makes it much easer on long walks to the end of the pier..... and this one for the boat - same but in blue (matches the boat) a woman was selling them on facebook locally for £15 or something - she had loads mostly green but thats a no on the on boat ( very good value for money i didn't ask any questions) although when i go on a mates boat i just chuck a load of weights, lures and traces in this (knowing he has a boat full of tackle if I need anything) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyswamp Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) I've got the same as suzook and mike use for shore fishing Great boxes with the rucksack But I find when I sit on it, the 4 compartments that are in the lid sometimes open, dumping the contents as soon as you open the lid The top must flex with the weight Get one Jonc, it'll give you hrs of fun reorganising everything 2 or 3 times a trip To be honest, a few of the lads have them and don't have the same problem, I think it's my bony arse concentrating the weight on the lid Edited August 19, 2021 by jonnyswamp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah well that’s @Andy135 not me. Dogfish are over rated imho. Don’t tell him I said that though. Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
