ABSTRACT:
A unique fishing tackle box is described as having a number of separate housings which are adjacent the front of the box and in which spools of fishing leader line are mounted for rotating freely about their own axes which are, generally, in alignment and extend longitudinally of the box in parallel relation to the front of the box. The loose free ends of leader line from the spools, extend exteriorly of the box through a row of openings in the front of the box. Means are provided exteriorly of the box for cutting leader line as it is pulled from the openings.
The tackle box is also provided with a flexible measuring tape that is mounted within the top cover of the box and is extensible therefrom, such that the top cover acts as an abutment from which a fish is measured using the measuring tape.
The tackle box includes a special pivot pin on which a spool of fishing line is mounted for rotating freely as line is unreeled therefrom onto the reel of a fishing rod. The tackle box has other special features, such as a top cover which is compartmented into separate storage bins that are covered by a transparent lid for easy observation of the fishing tackle that is stored in the bins. The bottoms of the storage bins are covered with cork or styrofoam in which the fish hooks are embedded to keep them from becoming entangle with other fishing gear or tackle. The tackle box is also provided with a plurality of storage trays which are conventionally linked together for rotation from a stacked position to a stepped one.
