Easy View Tackle System

Hi Guys and Gals,

I recently attended a fishing and outdoor show (that time of the year) and one of the items that caught my interest was a tackle storage system for boats. It has been my experience that there never seems to be enough storage space for tackle no matter how large the boat! (curse of the bass fisherman :-) )

Anyway, here is the link to the web site...... http://www.easyviewtackle.com/index.html

Let me say that I am not trying to sell anything here, but I would like your opinions as to the pros and cons of such a system and if the system has merit or is a ripoff before I plunk down my bucks that could be better utilized by purchasing more fishing tackle. LOL!

Let me know what you think.

Keep yer baits wet and yer fanny dry!

Man, that looks like an interesting system. I've tried for years to keep lures and soft baits organized in my boat. It always started out looking like a good system, but by the end of the day, the boat is trashed and there's bags all over the place.

I'm going to have to check that out further.

Thanks for the link!

It looks like the old potato chip clip strips that you see in stores with packages of peanuts, or potato chips etc hanging from the end or side of a display. Bob

My boat has foam under some of the locker tops - you can stick lures in it and they stay good. BUT, they do take up room, if the locker is full they stick to stuff in it. And they are harder to see, especially if you are kneeling or standing. I don't know if I would like it or not but I am not thrilled with that type storage for lures on my boat.

I have actually seen this system, or one just like it, at boat shows the past couple of years. While at first, it appears to be some whiz-bang new great idea, further inspection lead me to believe that these were just impulse/POS (no not piece o'sh*t, actually I mean Point of Sale) clip racks for bagged products like potato chips and such, out of convenience/grocery stores, that have been wrangled into racks for mounting into boats.

While it (Easy View system) appears to be affordable, I've never tried one or seen one actually mounted up inside a boat though. For my soft/plastic bagged baits, I've become fond of the bag I got from Tackle Logic that has adhesive strips that you stick to each product's bag, and is drilled for mounting into their 3 ring bag system. I think the notebook-style bag came with 25 or so strips, and I've been able to reuse many of them, and replacements are cheap and easy to find in my area. Maybe if my little boat had more under-lid surface area to use this Easy View system with, I'd consider it more. But for now, my little Tackle Logic plastics "notebook" works just fine.

What I really think when I see something like this system is, why didn't *I* think of it? lol
