Gear Review: Gamakatsu G-Box

WHAT IS IT?

Gamakatsu G-Box Additions

WHAT SETS IT APART?

Expanding its popular G-Box lineup, Gamakatsu now offers two new deep compartment boxes and a pair of pocket-size utility cases. All models are made with single-hand, easy-open lid clasps and tight tolerances, which ensure that small terminal tackle doesn’t move from one compartment to the other. Constructed from high impact resistant polycarbonate, the new G-Boxes offer adjustable storage with micro-slit compartmental dividers, which allow the angler to adjust bin sizes for specific fits.

HOW DO I USE IT?

The 3700D offers deep compartments for bulky spoons, plugs, poppers and other wide lures that often exceed traditional tacklebox spaces. The spacious 3200D accommodates terminal tackle, as well as lures. Gamakatsu’s G-Box Pocket Utility Cases — 388DD and 318SD — are designed for mobile anglers fishing from shore. The 318SD features adjustable dividers on one side allowing anglers to customize their terminal tackle storage.

ANGLER’S INSIGHT: 

Another Gamakatsu innovation — the G-Box Reversible Utility Case — offers a convenient, space-efficient design with a lid on both sides. Offered in 3200 and 3700 sizes (8.1 x 5.7 x 2 and 10 x 7.5 x 2.4 inches), this format creates two separate containers in one unit with deep V-shaped dividers, providing tangle-free storage for a wide range of lures from jigs to crankbaits. Drain holes allow for easy rinsing without removing lures from their slots, while also promoting quick drying. Wide, locking latches keep the case secure.
