Abstract

A satchel-style tackle box, that has storage compartments for tackle, baits, fishing accessories and other equipment, is disclosed. The box permits ready and facile access to all the storage compartments when the box is disposed in its horizontal in-use position. Some of the storage compartments are accessible through the open upper end of the box. A lid assembly is hingedly connected with the upper, rear edge of the box and may be used to selectively close the upper end of the box. The lid assembly has two parts, a front part and a rear part that is connected with the box. The front part may be selectively opened, without opening the remainder of the lid assembly, so as to permit selective access to the front most storage compartment.
