ABSTRACT:
A buoyant tackle box molded of plastic has a rectangular outer housing and a plurality of inner storage compartments formed by partition walls. A vertical passageway is formed in the center of the housing by the partition walls and communicates with an opening in the bottom wall of the housing. A fish net is mounted on the housing and extends through the vertical passageway and is suspended beneath the housing as it floats in a body of water for securing the caught fish. A pump is removably mounted in one of the compartments for circulating water within the compartments for sustaining live bait temporarily placed in the compartment. A plurality of storage inserts are removably mounted within the storage compartments. One of the inserts contains a lower compartment for holding a frozen coolant for cooling items storage in an upper compartment of the insert. Another insert slidably receives a plurality of individual storage trays and a third insert has a plurality of vertical storage compartments for retaining individual artificial lures. A lid is pivotally mounted on the outer housing and secures the storage inserts in their individual compartments. The lid has a central opening which aligns with the vertical passageway and bottom opening for placing fish into the suspended net without opening the tackle box.
