ABSTRACT:
A container for storing fishing tackle that will compactly organize a large assortment of spinners, other lures, and tackle to prevent it from becoming intermixed, tangled, spilled, or blown away while making it easy to deposit, remove, and inventory. The container has a center frame partitioned into upper and lower compartments. These compartments have partitions separating them into smaller lure containing compartments of various sizes. Both top and bottom compartments are sealed with essentially identical covers, hinged at one end or side of the frame, and engaging a latch at the opposite end or side. A number of compartments have a spring retainer and a spring for engaging the eyelet of spinners and lures. The bias force of the spring, together with a means for securing the hooks of the lures, holds the lures firmly in position. An opening in the center frame partition allows lure hooks to wrap around the partition, protruding into the coincident compartment, and be positioned by a notch in the center web opening or the coincident compartment side walls. This internesting makes for a more compact box. Each cover is constructed with a row of slots, crossed by a helical coil tension spring for storing fishing flies. Each slot guides and retains the hook of a fishing fly to hold it in a stand-up position while the coil spring squeezes the hook to prevent it from being accidentally dislodged.
