Plano Guide Series™ Pro StowAway® Rack Tackle System

The Plano Guide Series™ Pro StowAway® Rack Tackle System is a comprehensive hard-sided fishing tackle storage solution designed to keep rods, lures, and accessories organized and accessible on the water. Built for anglers who demand modular, mission-ready organization, this system combines four removable StowAway® tackle trays with three top-access spinner bait racks and expansive bulk storage under the lid—ideal for everything from weekend bass tournaments to extended offshore trips where tackle volume and quick access matter.

The system measures 12 x 12 x 21 inches and weighs 13 lbs, making it portable without sacrificing capacity. The four StowAway® compartments provide separation for different lure types and terminal tackle, while the three spinner bait racks mounted on the lid maximize vertical space for quick topwater selection. A clear DuraView™ cover protects contents from saltwater spray and UV exposure while allowing visual inventory without opening the system. The over-molded comfort-grip handle distributes weight evenly for boat-to-shore transport, and the rigid construction withstands the corrosion and impact stress of regular saltwater and freshwater use.

This tackle system is built for anglers who fish varied conditions and need to switch between presentations quickly. Weekend fishermen benefit from the modular StowAway® design, which allows selective loading—take only the compartments and racks needed for a specific outing. Serious tournament and offshore anglers appreciate the hard-sided construction and the combination of organized compartments with open bulk storage, which accommodates rod tubes, oversized tackle boxes, and specialty gear. The Guide Series™ designation signals Plano's positioning toward serious recreational and semi-professional anglers rather than casual users.

Plano's hard-sided tackle storage systems are engineered to resist the environmental stress of boat decks and truck beds, where temperature swings, UV, and salt air degrade softer materials. The Plano Guide Series™ Pro StowAway® Rack Tackle System sits at the mid-premium tier of Plano's lineup—above entry-level soft bags but more modular than their full-size storage boxes. For buyers evaluating tackle storage solutions, consider whether the four StowAway® compartments plus three spinner racks align with your typical lure variety, and whether the 12-inch base dimension fits your boat's available storage space.
