Rotating Tackle Box

Abstract

A tackle box comprising a body and lid configured such that when the body and lid are closed, the combination forms a cavity sized and shaped for housing one or more rollers or spindles. The rollers have one or more compartments for storing fishing equipment, and a user can manipulate user controls to rotate the spindles and thereby cause different compartments to become accessible to the user when the tackle box is open.
