ABSTRACT:
A bait box for carrying fishing material and the like including a rectangular box having a pair of oppositely disposed hinged doors and a central compartment. Each of the doors is designed to be opened when a respective door is disposed as the upper horizontal surface of the box through cooperation with an internal weighted drum. The drum includes a slot through a flange which cooperates with a projection on each of the doors to permit a door to be opened when oriented as the upper surface of the box. In other orientations, the doors are locked in a closed position by cooperation between the flange provided on the drum and either of the projections. The drum includes a weight which always orients the slot formed in the flange at an uppermost position in all orientations of the box to permit opening of either of the doors when disposed on the top of the box.
