The Dri-Loc™ seal creates an airtight and watertight closure, preventing water intrusion from rain, spray, or submersion, thus protecting lures and equipment from corrosion and damage.
Can the interior dividers be rearranged?
Yes, the Plano EDGE Professional 3700 Deep Stowaway features adjustable, pre-cut dividers that allow for 100% customization of interior compartments to fit various lure sizes and tackle configurations.
How does the Water Wick™ divider function?
Water Wick™ dividers are designed to absorb residual moisture within the tackle box, further aiding in the prevention of rust and mildew on your fishing gear.
Is this tackle box suitable for storing saltwater lures?
