Does anyone think that the rig board in the large Korda box magnetic is a bad idea as I found they don't stay in place and when taking one out they all move I would prefer pins tbh

Changed mine to foam and pins,far better.Only issue is the pins can sit on things so lid does not close properly.

I agree. Otherwise I really like the box but find I still take a rig board with me separately, so one of the benefits I thought I was getting when buying this is not actually the case

I've got 2 magnets in mine..it's still not great but I just put my 3 rigs of choice in it so I can get my rods out without getting my actual rig board out of my bag.

I like the look of the basix one for short sessions with the bulk of the terminal being able to be left in the car

I have the basix one. Perfect for the overnight sessions I do.
Limited on the length of hooklinks but I mainly use PVA bags so good enough for 4-5 inch hooklinks 👍🏼

Just swapped over too the Basix box from the tackle safe and compac case
After realising I didn't use half the stuff I has stored in there. I've removed the small rig board as I carry a rig safe anyway. Amazing how much weight you can save. Need to be ruthless fellas.

Love my korda box. Don't use rig board for rigs though. But I do use it to keep my solar springer indicator quivers, and they seem happy stuck down with magnet. I do have a rid/tackle safe though and that is wicked

That was my point if you can't use the rig board and have to take another one then what's the point it's a bad idea imo

That bloody magnet is always causing mischief in my box. I don't even use the rig board either.

Iv never really got on with tackle boxs there just too big and clunky even the smaller ones, I use the small esp bits pouch with a Korda 8 compartment mini box for bits and pieces, can fit everything il ever need rig wise and more, 2 pairs of scissors, couple of esp gizmos few spools of hooklenth spool of leadcore and a selection of hooks 👍

Ditto, well...didn't sell it...delegated it to my coarse fishing rucksack to replace a 20yr old original Fox box.

Then got a new Fox Box for carp gear. Prefer not having that rig bit, I rarely pre-make rigs, but I have a few in a Rig Safe in a compact at the bottom of the bag for emergencies
