SAT Folio and Product

Existing fishing rig storage solution rely on circular designs that can lead to curled line, weaking the fishing line making it more likely to break when in use, therefore polluting the environment. My product concentrated heavily on this issue as well as incorporating features that made the product more versatile for storage as well as use when out fishing. The straight box design ensures that the line will not be pulled taut and curl unnaturally, with sectioned parts to store the hook, on the cork, and weights and any other parts of a rig in the other sections. The product incorporates smaller storage units that can be easily removed to quickly change what rigs are needed to be taken on a fishing trip. The clear lid allows for the user to easily see into the case to quickly identify what rigs are present without the need for opening the case.
