Jig/hook storage boxes?

Ok guys, I think I'm looking for something that's not being made? I'm looking for a 3700 series stow away box, with FIXED compartments for storing hooks, jigs, etc.. The adjustable ones, the hooks always slide under them and it drives me crazy. I'm currently using the 3600 size with fixed compartments, but I want the bigger box. I've found the ones that have 13 compartments, but that big open space at the top is useless. I looked at the bass mafia boxes, but they have a box inside a box and I don't like that either.

Anyone know where to find what I'm looking for? I'd appreciate any help. I'm about to break the internet looking. LOL

I took some and glued the dividers to keep stuff from sliding under...I also took some left over dividers from some other boxes that I had and trimmed them to fit and glued them in place in the larger compartments. But I keep soft plastic stuff and jig heads in it. I keep my good hand tied feather jigs and rabbit hair jigs in the large size fly boxes from BPS...keeps the hair and feathers from getting messed up.

This is how I do mine

The first one is a 3700 the rest are 36 I put my soft plastics in 2x3" medicine baggies 12 per bag and put 2 baggies per slot. Jigs never dry out or lose sent that way

If your soft plastics dry out...put them in zip lock bags and give the bag a couple squirts of PAM cooking spray. Wont hurt a thing Vegetable oil...wont harm the plastic and the fish like it.

I really don't know why I got all them things. Never use more than 2-3 colors at a time. The best crappie fisherman I ever knew had 1 old metal snuff can for a tackle box.

I love it murdok, see a lot of donnies stuff in there, looks like good quality. Sure maybe a fella don't need all that flare to catch a fish, but it sure seems awful pretty to us fishermen! Thanks for the photos, that's what I call eye candy... Lol

When /if you decide to glue dividers in Murdok a real small dab of shoe goo works good.
I wouldn't mind fishin out of your tackle box anytime--It all looks good to me...

I've got my plastics covered. I just need a 3700 box, that's just like the 3600 boxes above. I don't think they are to be had.

That being said I don't think I've not seen that exact box in a 37. But I will tell ya that the first one has slots in the top that lock down on the deviders in the bottom. Your jigs won't move.

10-4. I might give it a try. That or try glueing the dividers in, or keep using an extra 3600.

It just seems like I wouldn't be the only one wanting fixed compartments in a 3700. Lol

Hey Patrick I use worm bags they have zipper locked bags inside I keep plastics and all my jigheads in them just unzip the bag and look through it like a book they work great

Just made a trip to Bass Pro and Cabelas--Looked through all their 3700 and 3600 boxes and they are all made with removable dividers.Several brands,fancy
and plain.....Bah Humbug....

I have a stow away organizer mounted in one of my compartments. It'll hold 8 3700 or 3600. I just have wasted space with the 3600's. I have 2 of the Plano terminal tackle organizer boxes as well for jig heads, but even they are not a full 3700 size.

Thanks guys. I think I'm going to try glueing the dividers in. See how that works.

See if you can find a small tube of 5200 sealant. Slight bead on the edges should make em permanent

Grandpa Smith could roll a Prince Albert smoke one -handed while driving a tractor,hear a tune once and play it again on a French Harp,and tell the time of day within five minutes without a watch....All that and more simply amazed me as a youngster....Him and his buddy Ernie Richardson built barns in Saint Francis county ,Missouri....Sorry did not mean to get sidetracked from the thread Patrick.....

Not a problem. I like them stories!
