Let's face it: even if someone built a bass boat that was 30 feet long, there still wouldn't be enough space for all of our tackle. Most bass anglers are floating tackle stores. Heck, it's fun!

But even the craziest tackle buyers admit that all that tackle can turn a boat into a cramped mess. Overstuffed compartments mean lost fishing time, and their contents frequently spill out onto decks, which at worst can be a safety hazard. Ever see a guy slip on a box or a bag of plastics and do a header into the console? It's not pretty.

The Go-To System

Once again, someone is here to save the day. Cook's Tackle of Jonesboro, Ark. has a simple, ingenious, no-hassle, works-great solution. It's called the Go-To Tackle Storage System.

It's ingenious because it makes use of storage space in your boat that you're not now using (no fooling). It installs literally in 5 minutes, and you could probably run all day in 8-foot waves and neither it nor the baits would shake loose.

And from a tournament perspective, your "go-to" baits - the system allows you to store spinnerbaits, buzzbaits and packs of soft-plastics - are always close at hand and tangle-free. No tangled-up baits, no ruined skirts, no lost time trying to find a favorite lure, and no dancing around stuff on the deck.

Here's the "why didn't I think of that?" idea: the Go-To system converts the dead space under the deck compartment lids of your boat into usable, convenient storage space. When your deck lids are open, baits stored in the organizers can be easily taken out and put back. And when the lids are closed, all baits are securely locked in place. The units are rock solid and again, your baits don't tangle even when your rig is taking a pounding in rough water. We even gave it our own version of rough water - slamming the lids, jumping on them - and not one spinnerbait or bag moved.

Notable

> The unit attaches with screws which, when installed right, don't show through the carpet and don't leak. You might choose to use double-sided tape to install the Go-To system, but that won't be as solid as the screws.

> The baits are held in by solid plastic - no foam rubber.

> The units are American-made.

> Last but not least, the system is designed by company owner Darrel Cook, who is a bass fisherman.
