Plano Z-Series Tackle Bags Zipperless Tackle Organization featuring Kryptek Raid Camo

I expected this product to arrive with the expected quality, but the product is not as Nevertheless, PLANO failed to make this product stand out in a big way. While I have been using PLANO products for years, it appears that some changes have taken place. I don't understand the purpose of the trays, they are cheap and paper thin, may not last more than a few months, and the dividers are equally thin and may break easily and are not intended to hold tackle securely. Even though the bag itself claims to be water resistant, there are likely to be some Despite having nylon closure over a draw string under the flap and a separate closure from the flap, it doesn't completely seal the compartment so it isn't waterproof when packaged with the boxes it comes in. As far as I can tell, the nylon closure is positioned approximately 3/4 of an inch below the covering flap, so that even if a light spray were to enter, the nylon could be leaking. Two and a quarter inches above the bottom of the bag, on the side pockets are the water-proof eyelets. As such, anything stored in there will stay wet for approximately 2 1/4" of water until you manually drain it by turning the bag upside down. Even though it comes with four trays, there is still a gap on the cover flap of 2 1/4" to allow water to enter the main compartment where the trays are. Because the main compartment has no drain holes and the trays are not sealed, the water will enter, but cannot exit. Only Velcro is used on the fold-down flap, it is very low grade Velcro and there is no reinforcement in the form of snaps. The stitching on the bag is loose overall as well. A very overpriced bag that will not keep your tackle dry is the wrong purchase to make when looking for something to keep it It is for this reason I returned the bag, as I am afraid of replacing the tackle which will cost more than the selling price of the bag.

My camping setup works great with this organizing system. It also works great as a bugout bag with most of the necessities visually arranged and easy to get at. There are a few things it cannot hold, but it can fit all the little things and can be rolled up and strapped to the top or side It helps you plan a simple, organized outing at the campsite with fingertip access to necessities like fire starting and first aid supplies. Hang it from a tree branch and unroll it when you arrive.

There is supposed to be a drawstring on the backpack version of the bag to close the top. I cannot believe that design was so horrendous.

A large saltwater tackle bag should have 3 things in it 1. It should have everything I need 2. Two things you do not want are 1. Zippers that rust and 3. Plastic is likely to break. In order to carry it easily, I must be able to do so. My purchase was only for $85 and I only received (Please, no zippers. 1) The bottom tray was plastic, the straps to buckle the top down had cheap, plastic snaps that won't last for six months in South Florida's heat and humidity. Today is Sunday. In the case of very cold temperatures, I would think they would also break easily. In addition, there is only one canvas loop handle, instead of two (2). A single loop handle does not have reinforcement or padding. only drawback is the ONE SIDES LOOP HANDLE. The padded shoulder strap is a plus because it has a padded shoulder strap, but I cannot live with that. The bag flops to one side as it only has one handle! When you pick up the bag to move it, it will fall to one side! Lift the bag and the bag will hang at a 45 Degree angle pointed downwards. It is not only difficult to lift higher, but the bottom scrapes your leg as well. There is no evidence that this product has ever been tested or used. In the future, they may have a high rate of returns if they sell more of these. The book I've been given is now being returned. It is hoped that they will redesign the bag with two handles and replace the cheap plastic buckles with buckles made of brass or other durable materials.

It's a great bag and I use it exclusively for flashers (11. 1 inch). I filled it immediately and when I folded it, I was surprised not only by the size, but also that one flasher can be folded over another, which makes the short side dimensions smaller than the other bags I own which require the flasher compartment to be folded over It is too early to tell how well the overall quality will be, but the sewing seems very good and the material appears to be of high update my ratings often, so if anything changes I'll update this post.

Like many other fisherman, I am a gear junkie, and I can say that when I need another case, I will return for this one. I rate products based on the following criteria The rating of a product starts at four stars when I review it, as I rarely purchase products that fall below that threshold. After calculating the stars I add and/or subtract them depending on the following criteria. This is 1. I will give an item a four star rating if it is exactly what I expected and nothing more. When an item meets my expectations, I will give it a star (5 stars)
3. -If an item goes a bit below my expectations, I will reduce the star rating (3 stars)
4. Regardless of whether the product meets or surpasses my expectations, it will lose a star if the instructions for the product (if needed) are poorly written (hard to understand due to language problems or grammar errors) or just too difficult to follow. My star rating will be deducted by two stars if a product falls far below my expectations
6. As a rule, I only give products with a four or five star rating one star because most of the goods I purchase have a four or five star rating but by rare chance, a four star product may also get a one star rating. If you give me one star for a product, I'll explain why I chose that rating and why it could be due to customer service issues.
