Alright lads I'm looking for a new tackle box / bag / pouch.. don't have a clue what to go for in all honesty, I'm after something that can hold everything other than my leads, and not bulky. Any recommendations?? Thank you!

I love my Korda one and the matching pouch, holds everything I could possible need, sunglasses, PVA, zig kit etc

I like the little compartments with lids And it limits the amount I can take And takes up no space in the van as it stays in there as just in case
On the bank I use a rig safe with the rig board and compartments with 3 or 4 pieces in each of the compartments
I used to to a Tupperware box But the bits fell out of their bags.
Research and developments cost money and as this was developed by an angling company so be it
So I don't mind the carp tax in this instance

I was very sceptical about the Tackle Safe to start with until I gave in and got one, it's a brilliant bit of kit, got the bag it fits in to hold the bulkier items like hooklinks, pliers etc and job done. Before that had the Trakker PVA Pouch, that is also very good but the Tackle Safe is better for organising all your bits and bobs.

Have got exactly the same set up. The tackle safe is all you need and I still find I put far to much in it . Now use my pva pouch to keep my stock of spare tackle in

Fox medium system box for me, had two over a LOT of years, 10/10 for me, just does the job

Agreed. 20 year old Tupperware with the divided tray.

I've bought a couple of the wychwood medium size tackle boxes. No complaints here and stronger locking clips compared to old fox system

I have the korda tackle one but tbh I don't think you can beat the fox medium box which I use for river the trakker pva pouch small one is good

My pva pouch carries all my hooks,hooklinks,pva can get loads in them
I'm defiantly leaning towards the tackle safe, it was always in the back of my mind. I used the double sided fox box a few years ago, it used to drive me insane! My tackle was forever getting mixed up in different compartments..

I ended up getting the Korda tackle safe the other year, and too be honest, I was well pleased,
I was using the fox tackle box before, which I had for years, when they first came out,
But so much better with the tackle safe,
A lot more compacted, yet you still have plenty in there,
I did buy the compac 220, which holds the tackle safe perfectly, and room for hooks and hook links,
And not too bulky at all,
Well made, and strong,
Very happy with it

None. A large Thinking Anglers zip pouch holds everything I need to construct the rigs I use. Spare bits are kept stowed away in vehicle.
NGT do a version of the tacklesafe and is half the price of the korda.

Generally never bothered with fancy boxes. Got old freebies from Angling Times, Anglers Mail and from Sea Angler or use old Tupperware. Got the Korda Tackle safe and Rig Safe as a gift, they are top quality, strong and well designed. Can't fault them

I buy the occasional tackle box, but pretty quickly revert to a lead and bits bag. Bags tend to not hold as much whick stops me taking far more than i will use, and as they are flexible they fit awkward shape items within them.

Yeah there's pros and cons to both. I just can't deal with the bulkyness of most tackle box's. It's a toss between a pouch one of the tackle safe's on the market

I got a couple of the thinking anglers ones, comes with a rigid rig box and 4 litttle clip boxes and middle pockets all zips up in a tidy pouch about a foot long and 4 inches wide...

I had a grey Stuart box for years but it was replaced by one of the original large fox box around 20 year's ago I think it came free with a fox ultra 50 system thing both still going strong (I have purchased the smaller boxes that fit inside) so I can't see me changing any time soon

Maybe have a look at the Speero End Tackle Combi Bag, they are very well made and I love the way you can clip off the smaller parts

The wychwood tackle organiser pouch is a nice bit of kit, similar to the pva pouch but with an integrated rig board.
I really like the Korda boxes but find the boxes themselves quite heavy once you have the tackle safe, rig box and chod safe etc. Well made and well thought out though

I'd go with the Korda one or greys prodigy they do a large box you can get inserts for - have both keeps everything lovely and organised

Another plus one for the tacklesafe great bit of kit got all I used to have inside one of the fox boxes with having loads of little separate boxes for end tackle bits
A mate has the Korda tackle box and that's a nice bit of kit aswell tbf nice n easy everything in front of you I guess it all depends on what you are after and prefer to fish out of 👍

I used too have two old Aqua lead bits bags, one for end tackle and leads, the other with the inner Velcro tabs removed for electrical lighting and audio, (bivvy light head torch radio batteries etc)
I've now got a Ridgemonkey suitcase and a Korda tackle box and case, coming in at 30kg WTF! 😁

I tend not to use a 'Tacklebox' but instead keep all my spares/hooks/hooklink in a large pouch and then use one of the small JAG pouches (sharpening kit style) which has my baiting up bits (needles, floss, putty, lighter, scissors) inside my rod holdall so I can pretty much get fishing from one bag to start. I then bought a cheap Sperro tray from Amazon (£7) for once I am set up in the bivvy for rig making etc

Korda tackle safe convert here as well.... I loved my double sided fox deluxe box.
Could not believe everything I had in it fitted into the korda box.
I have a aqua case that it fits in perfect with all my other bits and goes into a compartment in my ruck sack.

Got the tackle safe too with the bag
The 2 together can hold absolutely everything you could possibly need
Braid hook link gear goes in the bottom of the bag, tackle safe on top, hooks plastic baits in the bag zip
Love it, takes up no space but accommodates everything you could possibly need

Guys, I'm getting confused over the Korda Tackle Safe. I've seen the Tackle Safe box for around £22, but then came across this which shows the box and bag for £14.99. Doesn't make sense.
https://www.anglingdirect.co.uk/korda-tackle-safe-korda-compac-zip-up-case-large-140
I presume you buy the bag for it separately??
Also, which Fox box are people referring to as another option?

Ok, think I've sussed it.
The link I posted must be an error on Angling Direct's part.
It looks to me like you buy the Korda Tackle Safe for around £22 and the bag that goes with it is the Korda Compac Large 140, which is around £14.99.
Have I got that right?

I never make rigs on the bank for some reason. A small jag pouch is all i take with me to the lake and a full rig box. Hooklinks etc get left at home.
Edit: not all i take, obviously. Pva, leads etc all get thrown in a pocket on the rucksack.

I don't like making them on the bank either - much easier to just sit up at a table and probably easy to make an error on the bank.

I always take enough kit to make up rigs on the bank, just in case.

Yes, I take emergency bits, but if the rig wallet is nicely full of pre-tieds then there's no need.

Thinking anglers tackle pouch is very good. Not available anymore and go for silly money on eBay. Although I'm sure someone mentioned in another thread that a new version was coming out soon?

I have used a few different tackle box's over the years and the Korda ones are just on another level, there is just places for every bit of end tackle you can need in one space, only negative is I would like 2 magnets to hold rigs in place. I was using the trakker soft case one before and that to be far was ok, I just over filled it
