No really you didn't the BASS mafia co sent money to china. THEY bought the box and contents. 87.9 % of everything bought in America has a Chinese component or part in it.......

People boast "I bought my gun , ammo, what ever" from an American co. MADE IN AMERICA !! Yea but the equipment used to build said product came from china. The materials came from china. So go figure. Basically only thing I have I know for sure that is made in America is my son !!!!

On a side note, how is the quality of the cases? Most of the Plano stuff leaves a lot to be desired.

Top shelf all the way Hutchy. This gear is going on thr back of a yak so I want boxes that will not only shed water but also be tight enough to pop up to the top like a bobber if we git down side up, side ways, or inside out cause I'm fixin to go thru some sketchy rapids

I'm surprised it's that low. Seems like everything that's manufactured now is at least part made in China and the package is came in is almost definitely 100% made in China.

The tag was adhered to the case Cat or I'd hope you were right.

Unless Pelican starts makin tackle boxes this is the best stuff I own. It is so good I might get a Fishpond drink holder to go with it LOL

I guess those Chinese made you and offer you could not refuse. I am glad that a lot of us here are not that easily intimidated and send money to folks just because it says Chinese Mafia on a box.

Pool noodles cut into 6" or 12" will float about anything that you can get into a kayak. Split them and they will slide onto most anything. The brighter the color the better, makes it easy to find when you are looking. When a rod is not in your hand, slide one over it just above the reel seat. Will save you a lot of heart ache when you end up bottom side up.


Live each day as if it were your last. We know not at which hour it will come. Life is too short.Tell your loved ones each day how much you love them

Food is the only reason it's that low.
