Avid Reload Utility Box

The Avid Reload Utility Box is a comprehensive, multi-use storage system designed for the organized angler. Whether you are a dedicated boat angler needing quick access to essentials on the water or a solid bag specialist looking for a one-stop preparation station, this box provides a weather-resistant and highly customizable solution.

Beyond its clever storage layout, the Reload Utility Box offers incredible value by including a full set of Avid Titanium Retracta tools and braid scissors. The box features a weather-sealed lid and a secure double-clip locking system, ensuring that your expensive terminal tackle, PVA bags, and dry baits remain protected from the elements and boat spray.

Detailed Specifications

Included Tool Kit (Titanium Retracta)

This box comes pre-loaded with the following premium tools:

• Splicing Needle: For neat leadcore and lead-free leader work.

• Gated Needle: Perfect for pulling hair loops through baits.

• Hair Needle: A fine needle for delicate hookbaits.

• Hard Bait Hair Needle: Increased strength for drilling through air-dried boilies.

• Bait Drill: For nuts and super-hard hookbaits.

• Titanium Braid Scissors: Precision blades for clean cuts on all hooklink materials.

Key Features

• Customisable Internal Tray: Features four adjustable dividers, allowing you to create the perfect home for your needles, leads, and terminal tackle.

• PVA Bag Station: The lower compartment is deep enough to store dry pellets and crumb, while the top tray keeps your PVA bags and leads bone-dry.

• Weather-Sealed Case: The integrated gasket seal protects your gear from rain and water ingress, essential for boat work or damp night sessions.

• Central Structural Divider: Adds rigidity to the box and provides a fixed point of separation for larger items in the main base.

Pro Tip

Pro Tip from Gerrys Fishing: If you are a solid bag angler, use the lower compartment as your mix bucket. You can store two different types of pellets or a pellet/crumb mix separated by the removable divider. This allows you to prep your bags directly over the box, meaning any spilled bait falls back into the compartment rather than being wasted on the bank or floor of the boat.

Examples of Use

• Boat Angling: Use it as an Essentials Box on the deck of a boat to house H-Blocks, spare leads, and hookbaits for rapid re-casting.

• Solid PVA Bag System: Keep your bags, tape, and tools in the top tray, and your dry bag-mix in the bottom for a seamless workflow.

• Terminal Tackle Station: A great primary tackle box for the short-session angler who wants to carry all their rig-tying gear and tools in one compact, easy-to-carry unit.

• Hookbait Storage: The depth of the tray and base allows for the organized storage of multiple pop-up tubs alongside your rigging tools.
