Best Fishing Tackle Box: Carp Tackle Boxes

Best Fishing Tackle Box: Carp Tackle Boxes

Gone are the days of the old tool box style tackle boxes that many of us first started out with, replaced by practical, modular storage solutions to enable anglers to keep all the essentials in one place. This is our list of the best fishing tackle boxes!

Fox F Box Series

The F Box has been around for years and years and is still as good today as it was when Fox first brought it to market. Since its inception it has undergone many upgrades over the year and the range has now expanded to give the modern specimen angler everything they could possibly wish for. The range is so big that we are just going to focus on the F Box Large single sided tackle box in both the standard and deluxe versions. The Large single sided F-Box is designed to maximise storage space and allows easy access to tackle components. The high impact, injection moulded construction produces a rigid and hard wearing design which features waterproof sealed lids, long last hinges and reliable slide lock closures. The compartments are adjustable in size using the supplied sub dividers. The F-Box Deluxe Set is fully fitted with integral storage units which are designed to accommodate all formats of carp fishing tackle. The box itself is designed to maximise storage space and allow easy access to all types of tackle components. The high impact, injection moulded construction produces a rigid and hard wearing design which features waterproof sealed lids, long last hinges and reliable slide lock closure. The compartments are adjustable in size using the supplied sub dividers and the box comes fully fitted with the following components: Deep partition Large x 4, Deep partition Medium x 4, Deep partition Small x 8, Spool Dispensers x 5, 8 compartment x 2, Rig Boards x 2, Flip Top x 2, 2 compartment x 1, 4 compartment x 1. A tried and tested classic at a great opener for our list of the best fishing tackle boxes. Also available are the sae boxes but in a smaller medium size as well as zig rig and standard rig storage boxes as well.

Korda Tackle Box

The NEW Tackle Box is designed to be a complete storage system that allows you to keep the maximum amount of terminal tackle, but with the minimum footprint possible – it will fit neatly into the new Compac 220 EVA luggage, or straight into your rucksack or carryall. It isn’t intended to replace the existing Tackle Safe, but is meant as an alternative option for those looking to take more end tackle with them – such as longer sessions in the UK, trips abroad, any situation where you might end up fishing a few different methods during the same outing, or for anyone who simply just prefers keeping everything in an actual tackle box! Although the Tackle Box is larger than any of our other tackle storage products, it still maintains the ‘less clutter, more carp’ ethos, despite the fact that a lot can be fitted into it in a way that wastes absolutely no space at all – it really is the TARDIS of the tackle box world! It has 29 compartments of assorted sizes to store smaller items of end tackle, plus a magnetic rig board that will take ten pre-tied rigs, and the layout is adjustable via moveable dividers. Our recently updated square hook link spools fit in perfectly, as do the Kamakura hook boxes, and it will also take the new Leader-Safe and Mini Compartment Boxes.

One side of it features an open compartment which can be used to story larger items such as spools of hook link material, Pulla Rig Toolz and scissors. The same half of the TackleSafe also has eight compartments which are accessed via flip top lids to ensure that the items contained within can’t accidentally spill out – it is perfect for things such as Heli-Safe Beads, Hybrid Lead Clips, and Fake Foods, for instance. The other side of the TackleSafe has two larger compartments with lids, which can be used to store packets of hooks, baiting needles. It also has a number of smaller, lidded, shallower compartments that can be used for storing swivels, rig rings shrink tubing, Kickers, and any other smaller items of terminal tackle.

Fishing for me has long been more than a hobby, but more of an obsession. Since as far back as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by water, and all that which lives below the surface, and subsequently, as soon as I was old enough to hold a fishing rod, my angling journey started.
