I use a Plano 7771 box(love it!), along with a bag with 4 370 containers and 1 360 container. Then I also carry a binder for my soft plastics. I also have a small 2 tray box for in the canoe.

Believe it or not, this is not enough storage for me as I have an extra 370 and 360 full that won't fit in the bag...lol...I've got problems...please don't tell my wife....

My problem too Markystang was that nothing I could buy could possibly fit all the tackle I needed.

 

That's why I have about 35 of the one layer trays people are talking about down in the basement. When I'm going out, I mix & match the ones I need for the day and put them in whatever's convenient. Backpack for shore trips, milk crates for boat trips.

Bag all the way! So convenient to carry a couple trays plus other stuff that won't fit nicely in the bottom of your box. Like your drift sock, for example...that I took home with me from up north and is now riding around the back seat of my Jeep

But getting back to how handy the tackle bag is....you can have your big monster box of tackle, and when you go targeting a certain species, pack a couple trays and have a nice LIGHT, easy to carry bag, that goes over your shoulder leaving your hands free. Instead of a big box full of tangled lures, that either won't open or close because of tangled hooks inside it.
