chillfactor Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 Last time out in France...

Damo_UK Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 I've gone through a fair few different terminal tackle solutions in my time, from using one of the old original Shakespere tackle boxes back in the 90's, to the Fox F Double, Avid Pouches and Korda tacklesafe - however as the years go by I found myself naturally honing my terminal gear to just what was necessary and fell upon the Korda Tackle box a few months back. I like things organised and this is perfect, rather than having hundreds of plastic pouches in pockets to sort through. I know it's very fanboyish and I'm not like that normally, but I think this is a genuinely decent product for someone like me who scales down their carp gear for mobile UK day sessions. salokcinnodrog, finchey, elmoputney and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very neat 👍 .... I wonder if we added up the cost of filling out our tackle box’s what the amount would be ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big stuff (rods, shelter etc) is easy to value but if you had to put a value on the tackle box it'd be tricky. Those little packets add up innit. salokcinnodrog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me if a lot of us have £2000 plus in tackle box bits alone I worked out I had £9 quids worth of fox tadpoles then stopped before i added up all the hooklinks (I have recently purchased £10.95 worth of esp x stiff coated braid though) so that's £20 on 2 items 😁 kevtaylor and yonny 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
