Blacktip Tackle Bags
With models suitable for everything from wade-fishing to blue water trolling and anything in between, anglers looking for a new tackle storage system would do well to take a look at West Marine’s Blacktip Tackle Bags.
Ideal for wading anglers and anyone else looking to keep tackle and gear organized and on their hips, the Blacktip Tackle Waist Bag features a heavy-duty, quick-clip belt that adjusts to fit anglers’ hips. The belt features a padded back support that makes it comfortable to wear for long days on the water, even when loaded down. A main compartment features room for an included pair of 3600-size tackle trays, with room for an additional two 3400 trays in a front compartment. Smaller pockets on the sides of the Waist Bag are ideal for beverages, pliers, and other items that anglers need quick access to, and a clear front pouch protects wallets, keys, and other items from the water.

For those looking to store more gear, the company’s Medium and Large Tackle Bags are the ticket. Water resistant coatings and black matte polyurethane construction on both bags protect anglers’ tackle from moisture and keep the bags themselves abrasion resistant in the often harsh environment of a boat deck. The Medium Tackle Bag includes a pair of 3700-size tackle trays with room for two more. The Large version is sold with three 3700 trays and has room for an amazing ten in total, plenty of space for even gear hoarders (and what anglers aren’t?). An adjustable interior divider lets anglers budget space in the bags’ main compartments as they see fit.
Both the Medium and Large bags feature zippered front pockets for smaller items, mesh pockets to keep things even handier, side tool loops, rod tube holders, and lash loops to secure the bag while aboard and underway.

Offshore anglers seeking more specialized tackle storage solutions will also be interested in the Blacktip Jig Bag and Lure Bag. With similar construction to the other bags, each has a specialized interior for tangle and hassle-free storage of jigs or trolling lures. The Jig bag has pockets for both large and small vertical jigs, hook-and-loop closures to keep everything secure, an outer pocket, and top carrying handles. Larger pockets in the Lure Bag let anglers store trolling lures and other bulky baits compactly and tangle free. The rubber mesh construction of one side of the bag lets anglers wash down their gear and air-dry it without removing it from storage.
Anglers can check out all the available Blacktip Tackle Bags at their local West Marine store or online at www.westmarine.com.
