Terminal tackle box?

What does everyone use for a terminal tackle box? I have the old Falcon box speciifically for terminal tackle and now it's breaking apart and need a new one. I loved the Falcons specific boxes...are there any out there like that?

I use the Falcon as well and love it. I haven't had my eye out for them but I don't recall seeing falcons lately. I did see that Plano is now making a box that is strangely similar to the falcon. Maybe Plano bought them out? 45-501 is the Plano model number.

I use 2 boxes, one with misc tackle and bulk hooks that pretty much is stowed away and the other a small 9 section "speed box" that I keep on the deck. Primary hooks, bullet weights, pegs, and jig worm jigs. I keep 2 other small boxes, one for cranks and one for jigs, it's a little redundant to have two boxes with the same thing, but I like having my primary tackle out for easy access and quick retrying. full-35223-43157-image.jpg

Plano does still make the Falcon terminal tackle box - at least the large one. Wish they still made the smaller size, as I actually like that one better, and it'll fit in most tackle bags made for the standard 3600-size Stowaways. I use one for T-rig components, and one for drop-shot/wacky rig/split shot rig stuff.

The Falcon boxes seem to do a pretty good job of keeping hooks in their compartments. Stuff sliding around and getting jumbled up is my pet peeve.

Flambeau has some new boxes out that are supposed to be for organizing terminal tackle - they have hook holders, etc. Haven't seen one in person yet but am planning on tracking one down and checking it out. Always on the lookout for a better mousetrap.

To solve the problem of hooks and things not staying in compartments if the box gets flip over. I saw a video on Youtube where a guy cut out a piece of shelf liner and used a spray adhesive to stick it to the underside of the lid so it formed a tight seal against the dividers.
