Review by William A. Gibbs IV for Plano 44 Magnum Tackle Box

If you are a true fisherman you value the time on the lake and good tackle box is absolutely key to whole experience. This tackle box is going to provide years of frustration. Not one single compartment on the entire tackle box will hold the fishing lure, hooks, or weights in place. If you really enjoy having to reorganize your entire tackle box everytime you get to the dock or on the boat this tackle box is for you.
If on the other hand you want a tackle box that keeps items organized and in their compartments this tackle box is NOT for you. I contacted Plano directly and got the blow off from customer service and even the head of Product Management for this model. Don’t waste your time with this tackle box. unless you plan on keeping 1 inch nuts and bolts in it, those might actually stay in their compartment….

The Plano 44 Magnum is part of Plano’s Guide Series of Professional tackle boxes. This one is built rugged and stands up to the wear and tear of professional use. Latches close tight and do not slip. A rubber handle is nice for those wet days when you’re coming off the water and don’t want to worry about losing your grip on your valuable bait collection. The Duraview top really is nearly indestructible like they say… I’ve bumped and banged into quite a few boats, truck doors, and trailers with it and not even a scratch.
As an avid fisherman, I was looking for something to complement my normal tackle box (I use the Plano Professional System as my all-around box) for stick baits, poppers, and other top-water baits.
I will admit that the other reviewer is correct about it not holding things in place… but only in the outer-most compartment. The compartment with the smoke-color lens should not be used for small items such as swivels and hooks. The lid is slightly rounded and items can jump from compartment if they are less than 2mm tall — I filled the outside with my most-used stick baits!
The inside clear compartment not only holds more bait, but acts as a cover for more compartments beneath the top lid.
The bottom of the box is deep enough to hold 5 inch tall containers or multiple 3450 series boxes.
My only complaint with the box is as stated about the outer compartment’s lid, it could be made a bit differently for those wishing to fill it with terminal tackle. 4 out of 5 stars. Great tackle box.
