Fishing Gear: YakAttack BlackPak Pro Kayak Fishing Crate—13x13

YakAttack BlackPak Pro Kayak Fishing Crate—13x13

Description and Application: The original hard-sided kayak crate just got better. A lot better. The result of intense collaboration and more than a year of R&D and design, the BlackPak Pro is fully riggable with a hinged lid, 25% weight reduction and top-shelf functionality—and it looks good! There are several sizes to choose from, but the 13x13 measures 13 x13 x 13 inches (L,W,H) and weighs only 6.9 pounds without TetherTubes and 8.2 pounds with the included three TetherTubes. The BlackPak Pro also comes in two other sizes, 13 x 16 and a 16 x 16.

Staff Perspective:Kayak anglers are known for innovating and rigging to match their preferred style of fishing, it’s really quite impressive. The storage factor is always the most discussed, and YakAttack has taken tackle storage specifically to new levels with the family of BlackPak crates. They are customizable with the rod tubes; they handle 3700 size tackle trays and they easily fit into the tankwell of all fishing kayaks. I really like the durably and functionality of the crate, the lids open easily and lock down securely, and they’re easy to carry form the truck to the kayak—they thought of everything with these crates. And I really like the color options: Black, desert tan and olive. Cool. You’ll love these crates, for sure.
