What it has going for it

4 rod holders on the crate

Spare rods ride upright behind the seat, rigged and ready, instead of rolling around the deck.

Made in USA

The listing says it is made in the USA.

What changes on the water

Your tackle stops sliding around the tank well. Boxes, tools and spare line live in one crate you can lift out at the end of the day and carry to the car.

Will it fit your tank well?

A tape measure answers this one in a minute: compare the crate size on the listing with the tank well behind your seat.

On a sit-inside hull with no open tank well, a crate is often the wrong tool; a deck bag or a dry box is easier.

Setup and what you get

How you use it. Set it up at home first, so the first try is not at the ramp with the sun coming up.

The verdict

The YakAttack BlackPak Pro Crate (13 x 16 in) is about room for 4 rods in built-in holders, and it doesn't pretend to be more. No buyer reviews yet, so this YakAttack tackle crate has to win you over on paper. The catch with the YakAttack: whether it fits your exact kayak is for the manual, not the listing, to confirm. We'd pick it if you want a tackle crate for anglers who rig their kayak like a small boat.

The one thing we'd check first

Before the YakAttack BlackPak Pro Crate (13 x 16 in) lands on your driveway, check your exact kayak model: a mount, a cart or a trolley has to fit your hull, your track and your manual, not a similar-looking one.

Before you buy

Your tank well

Measure the tank well behind your seat and check that the bungees or straps reach around the crate. A crate that rocks in the well will annoy you all day.

The manual first

Read the kayak manual before drilling, mounting or loading anything. A hole in the wrong place is forever.

Your full load

Every accessory adds weight on board. Our capacity planner adds it all up against the stated capacity of your kayak.
