Soft Tackle Boxes Buying Guide
Here’s all you need to know about buying a soft tackle box.
Storage Capacity
The storage space of your soft tackle box is the first factor you want to consider. With much storage space, you can take all you need and include tools and extra accessories. Soft tackle boxes can also be used in two distinct ways – first, by storing tackle directly in the standard compartments or using stowaway boxes. The ideal soft tackle box should be large enough to contain all you’ll need but not too large that it’s difficult to carry.
Material
Another important factor to consider when choosing a soft tackle box is the material it’s made from. It should be tough enough to resist tears but light enough for excellent portability. It should also be breathable but weatherproof. Fabrics like polyester and nylon are common in soft tackle boxes and are very durable.
Seal
The ideal soft tackle box should be well sealed for weatherproof performance. Some soft tackle boxes come with an inner lining that prevents water infiltration. The zippers and clips should also prevent dust to ensure your tackle stays in optimum condition for very long.
Portability
Another important quality you want to see in a soft tackle box is excellent portability. The ideal soft tackle box should be compact and easy to carry around conveniently. Some tackle boxes come with the main carrying handle, a shoulder strap, and sometimes schoolbag-style straps to evenly distribute the weight across your shoulders and back. Straps and handles should also be padded for the most comfort.
