Fishing gear isn’t cheap, and nothing kills it faster than salt and spray. Hooks rust out, lures corrode, and small bits like swivels and split rings vanish if they’re not stored properly. That’s why a solid fishing tackle box is part of every serious angler’s kit. It’s not just about keeping things tidy - good tackle storage saves time, protects gear, and makes sure you’re always ready when the bite’s on.
At Cavy Fishing, we don’t stock storage that looks good on the shelf but falls apart on the rocks. Every box is tested by Adam Cavanagh in real tropical conditions - reef flats, rocky headlands, offshore boats - so you know it’ll hold up in the same tough environments you fish.
Waterproof Protection for Saltwater Trips
Saltwater is brutal on tackle. Even a quick splash can rust out hooks or leave your lures looking ordinary. A proper waterproof tackle box seals out spray and rain, keeping everything dry until you need it. Clear lids make it easy to spot gear without opening, and drainage holes in some designs stop water from pooling if they do get wet.
Compartments That Keep Gear Organised
Every angler’s got a pile of lures, hooks and terminal tackle - and there’s nothing worse than digging through a mess when fish are busting up in front of you. Tackle storage boxes with adjustable compartments let you separate gear by type, size or target species. Whether it’s poppers for GTs, jigs for tuna, or small hooks for bait fishing, everything stays sorted and easy to grab.
Built Tough to Last
Fishing gear gets dropped, thrown around the boat, and sat on during long sessions. Cheap boxes crack and latches snap, leaving you scrambling. Heavy-duty plastics, reinforced hinges and saltwater-resistant latches mean your tackle storage box will last trip after trip. Cavy boxes are designed to take the knocks of real fishing, not just sit in the garage.
Right Size for the Job
No one box fits every angler. Shore-based fishos often need compact, lightweight tackle storage that slips into a backpack or sling bag. Offshore trips can handle larger multi-tray boxes with space for leaders, jigs and spare reels of braid. Choosing the right storage box for fishing means less bulk, better mobility, and more time actually casting.
Tested in Real Saltwater Conditions
Plenty of companies sell tackle boxes made for the DIY aisle. We build ours for saltwater. Adam Cavanagh puts each storage option through its paces on real trips - bouncing around boats, trekking across rocks, and fishing in the spray. If a box doesn’t handle tropical punishment, it doesn’t make the cut.
Why Good Storage Matters More Than You Think
It might not be as exciting as a new lure or rod, but good tackle storage is what keeps your gear alive long enough to use it. By investing in proper waterproof, durable boxes, you’re saving money on ruined hooks and wasted lures, cutting down frustration, and making sure you’re always ready when fish show up.
