tackle box protects gear from rust - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

FISHIONADO · 09-07-2010, 05:19 PM

I've had one of these for a year now and it really works. My hooks and other tackle don't corrode at all when stored in the box, even if put inside wet with saltwater. Just passing on something that worked for me.

Thanks Dave, I need something just like that.

Is it too big to take on the water?

How does it work? It looks like a plain old plastic container.

Yani, this one is just a little smaller than the orange one I used on my P15 for years.

Bob, this is from the Zerust web site:
http://www.zerustproducts.com/what-is-zerus
How it Works - Zerust products protect against rust by releasing an invisible, non-toxic, non-reactive, and odorless corrosion-inhibiting vapor. This vapor protects metal components from corrosion for up to five years. Protect a range of metal items including those created from aluminum, brass, copper, iron, nickel, steel, and silver.

The box is made by Flambeau:

HEy, that opsrey in your photo almost took me out today OTW when it crashed for a fish about three feet off my kayak while making bait......really the only excitement of the day for me (didn't see it coming)

He could do some serious damage, check out the claws. I call him Igor Leghorn, we're tight.

Most of these were taken with my Blackberry up close.

Had oen that lived in Dana point a year or two ago. I was fishing off the railing in the harbor next to a big palm tree. I hear a huge crash in the bomb tree, little birds scattering and fleeing, tons of commotion!

Big girl comes out lands right on a tree next to me within arms length away, she nabbed herself a blackbird. started ripping it up and eating away. Didnt even bother me.

When were those pictures taken? i think they only come down her during winter time. then they go back north during our "summer"?
