Best fishing tackle storage trays according to redditors

Thanks! Found two different options for anyone else who is interested (below). Is the weed still fairly fresh by the time you get to the end of the month or does it get a little dried out?

Heavy Duty - $16.23

Jewelry Organizer - $10.99 - Similiar to OP's - The one I may get and attempt to make it airtight.

For smaller games, Plano boxes are considered a really good option by many. You can find cheaper versions in bigbox/craft stores as well, just watch out for the quality of the dividers. Some cheapos just end up falling out.

For bigger games, I've seen a lot of people use rolling suitcases at cons.

It might sound weird, but a tackle box can be a good to-go container for hobbyists. You can get ones with plastic trays that fold out to hold assorted minis and dice to keep at hand instead of having to put stuff away.

For character sheets, I’d go for a nice little accordion folder. You can separate stuff out, and still have it handy. Either that or something like a milk crate with a set of drop down folders. The hanging manilla ones are great and cheap.

Lastly, for books, you can install a bookshelf or any kind of shelf and slap some bookends on there. Keep books handy that you need. If you have some older edition ones you might not need quick access to your bog standard plastic container should do fine.

This is the sort of box that I was thinking of.

Tackle box! I use this one.

Some were asking, so:

This is what I use to play out of, and this is the big tackle box.

This is the box for cards, and the tray in the bottom is another plano tackle box with the lid taken off.

Edit: added 2 more links

Exactly. I have this: Flambeau Outdoors 5007 Tuff Tainer

> 3650N

That Plano is 30$ on amazon but it fits so much better than mine!

This is mine. I may cut away some of the non-removable dividers to get more space for zombies and survivors like you have!

Also paging /u/xtcz

I'm using one of these Plano boxes. It is serving me well.

Plano 23750. Its durable and the containers inside are adjustable for whatever size and shape of token, obstacle, or ship you want to bring. I can safely pack 2 lists into it with enough tokens for everything. Your maneuver templates and range rulers fit like a breeze. Never had any reason to switch in 5 years and they're only $12 prime shipped on Amazon!

I'm Still looking myself these counter trays look promising here's a YouTube video showing them

As for now I'm using this it holds my dice. Use the larger spots for sidekick, action, and extra dice. I'm a casual player and not into collecting everything

Question for you. Is there a reason your stuff has to be on "trays" or something similar for tournaments? Or could one use something like [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Plano-StowAway-Organizer-Adjustable-Compartments/dp/B007UTNREK/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1450477702&sr=8-3&keywords=plano+3750)? I have yet to go to any tournaments but I was thinking about starting soon and want to know if I bring one of those with my stuff in it, if I will be fine?

Very cool. I find the Flambeau 5007 Tuff Tainer to be a great, compact way to store dice, but I can't deny the appeal of this. Good find.

I used a tackle box... Purchased at Walmart for about $6-$7 and extra separators I found at gander mountain for $1.99 a pack (needed two packs. Works pretty well!

Flambeau Outdoors 5007 Tuff Tainer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000EDTS1A/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_1AlTub1CAT9RA

I used to have a crappy $12.99 tacklebox from walmart. It sucked.

Before my last fishing trip, I switched to my old backpack with 3 of these
http://www.amazon.com/Flambeau-Outdoors-5007-Tuff-Tainer/dp/B000EDTS1A stuffed inside.

Its AWESOME. It fits all of my lures, I can sort them way easier, I have enough room to bring along everything I need, and my hands are free for walking down steep trails to get to the water.

I also got a smaller double sided one. One side is weights, the other is hooks.

Its a really nice setup and I'm really happy with it.

I have just the core set and Nerekhall. I keep all the tiles in gallon ziplock bags in sets of 10 in the Nerekhall box and everything else in the core box using 2 of these. All the minis except the large ones in one and the cards, tokens, and dice in the other. I probably have enough room for another big box expansion.

I have a Plano 732 Angled tacklebox for my collection. It includes some of these storage boxes which work great for storing ships as well as dials. Actually, since you asked specifically about dial/tokens, I think this one may work better, but I haven't tried it out to see.

• I use this Plano tackle system to store and transport my essential D&D DM stuff. There are lots of cubbyholes that fit 7-dice-sets, including all the individual cubbyholes inside the smaller tackle boxes, which you can buy separately.
  
  
• I have a bunch of cheap Chessex dice bags that I bought at CoolStuffInc along with other gaming supplies. I generally use those to transport dice these days. I used to reserve some compartments in one of the smaller Plano tackle boxes for dice, but then I started using Koplow jumbo dice when I DM, and those won't fit in the Plano tackle box spaces.
  
  
• I use one of these Container Store Multi-Drawer Cabinets (the largest, 44-drawer one) to store and organize dice at home.

I use:
http://www.amazon.com/PLANO-Tackle-Systems-Hybrid-White/dp/B00OY9JS7Y/ref=sr_1_12?s=hunting-fishing&ie=UTF8&qid=1450812604&sr=1-12&keywords=tackle+box&refinements=p_36%3A1253556011

It works great to keep all the tokens in the top portion, the cards in the bottom (in the same type of tackle box inserts that you already have) and then I keep all of my ships in the same plastic enclosures that they come in placed inside a large Rubbermaid container.

Tokens and Dials i keep in Plano 3700 storage boxes that come in various layouts. I also store my ships in these.

Cards i keep in card pages in 3 ring binders.

I got a pack of these. They're a good value and small enough to fit in just about any game box. Only complaint is that they have one shallow compartment at the front and don't include enough dividers for every space, but it hasn't actually been an issue yet.

I use this plastic tackle box with adjustable dividers for a similar purpose:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E39T5K

It does make it much easier to setup and tear down. It requires more storage space of course, but worth it. Great for Le Havre and Agricola.

If you're looking for something to meet people with in college I would suggest Pandemic. Co-op is probably a good way to go when trying to make friends and it's a pretty easy game to learn. If you find some people who may be more interested in heavier games you can't go wrong with Eldritch Horror. Just get a token organizer like this to make setup way easier than dealing with loads of baggies.

This?

Those look they have curved corners not curved sides like this: pill organizer

Curved corners don't really add much. That curved front of the pill organizer makes it much, much easier to get the last token out.

It looks like they're half-size 3700 containers. Same form factor, but half size and all small pockets. Looks like one of these.

Maybe look at the various Plano tackle boxes, like this one?

Two 7x9 ones that I got from Amazon here

That one may work with my print files, but it's a different brand (Mine is Plano, that one is Creative Options).

However, mine says Model No 3650N on the case, but it's Model 23650-52 online. These look to be exactly it:

• https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/plano-prolatch-stowaway-utility-box-3650

This one looks closer to how she has it configured:

Plano 2-3750-02
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007UTNREK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_MP4nDbYYH0BQ1

3 rows, the closest to the snaps is thicker and there are 12 compartments in each of the smaller rows.

I got it off of amazon.

Thanks for the input!
Strangely enough, I used that exact Plano box for organizing band-aids and had an extra smaller case. This one seems to fit all the boxes vertically, although horizontal is preferred (more of the blade description shows).

Throw that insert in the trash.

There are lots of alternatives that could suit you well for storage of your various components. I usually go with Ouchless Hair Elastics for cards, when possible. For games with a lot of little bits, snack-sized baggies work wonders for organization. When able, I store miniatures in a Plano box that fits standard box-size. For games with lots of fiddly bits, I go with 5-compartment Plano or 6-compartment Plano boxes. They don't look as neat or work 100% as well as a custom foamcore or Broken Token solution, but they are a heck of a lot cheaper, in many cases.

Any of these options will keep your pieces from getting all disorganized in the box, especially when games are stored vertically. Means quicker set-up and less stress for your fun-time.

Are you actually flying? Because I'm working on packing as many games as possible into a file box right now for easy transport, if you could do that instead. You can usually condense things like cards and pieces enough to sort them into smaller dex boxes and plano cases, and the hanging file folders work well for holding game boards and rulebooks AND keeping them sorted. I also found some small, cheap tool boxes that are almost exactly the right size for cards in deck boxes AND to fit inside the file box, so things stay sorted and are easy to unpack.

If you can't do anything like that, I'd find some plastic containers or cardboard boxes that are the right size to hold the cards for the games and pack the cards in those, with dividers to keep them from getting mixed together, and just put said container into the suitcase. I'm not sure how many other pieces you'll have, but I'd look up plano boxes for sorting them, or just put them into small ziplock bags and then all into one bigger bag if necessary. Maybe wrap the boards in some shirts or something to keep them from banging around too much and that's probably all you need to do.


EDIT: Here's what I've used to help condense things a bit

• This tool box is just right for regular playing cards from end to end, and there's a bit of extra length at each end that you could use for the Coup cards, since they're a bit longer. You may need a bit of filler depending on how many cards you have and whether they're in sleeves or not. If you have a Dollar Tree nearby you can pick one up for...well, $1. https://www.dollartree.com/Tool-Bench-Hardware-Tool-Boxes/p370911/index.pro
  
  
• I use a plano case pretty much the same as this one for pieces for Dead of Winter. I'm not sure how many pieces you have for Catan, so you might be better off with just ziplocks, but otherwise this is definitely handy for storing tokens and such. https://www.amazon.com/Plano-Pocket-Stowaway-Compartment-Utility/dp/B000EYW8V6/ref=pd_bxgy_200_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000EYW8V6&pd_rd_r=X7E679MWD1FH1DENAXJM&pd_rd_w=SzqTl&pd_rd_wg=hqQyi&psc=1&refRID=X7E679MWD1FH1DENAXJM

I've been using these tackle boxes to hold my 1'' collection. I have a few of them to organize by plug type. They're cheap, size is great for inch plugs and can hold a lot of plugs. The dividers can be moved around to have each pair in their own spot. They're available at Wal-Mart as well so its convenient to get if you want them now instead of ordering.
