CLEAR LIDS: ONE-HANDED LATCH: Clear lids on the main box and 13 of the 16 interior boxes provide plain view of the contents inside. The one-handed latch is easy to open and snugs the lid in place to create a watertight seal. CONVENIENT INNER BOXES: The removable interior boxes are small enough to stash in a shirt pocket for quick access to key components throughout the fishing day. Performance Advice 1. The high-density pads inside the weight boxes are ribbed to cradle specific weight sizes. Make sure the weights don’t exceed the width of the channels or the lid might not fully close, which can prevent the primary lid on the EDGE box from shutting tight. Likewise, make sure lids on the interior compartments are fully closed at both ends. Listen for the click. HITS & MISSES 2. When closing the primary lid, make sure to apply even pressure to the latch so it secures at each end. 3. The removable compartments are small enough to fit in a shirt pocket, which is nice for fast access to technique-specific terminal tackle without having to waste time returning to the main box over and over. In the fall, folks at Plano hinted at plans to sell additional interior boxes, which would make swapping out what you need for a day easy. >> ON THE WATER + Lightweight + Durable + Watertight seal + Roomy + Removable compartments + One-handed latch – A little pricey More EDGE The EDGE Terminal box is one of 10 units in the series, which earned Plano the Best of Tackle Management award at ICAST 2019.
