Location: Bloomington,MN | Anyone use this? If so how do you like them? I'm thinking about picking one up for my rubber baits and I wanna hear some reviews before I spend the money on it. How many bigger bulldawgs or dusas can it fit? |

| Love mine. Easier to fit n boat holds more baits. I would encourage you to buy one. |

Location: Planet Meltdown | Not sure if Lakewood addressed this but double check..... Some of the newer rubber baits were having reaction issues with the plastic used in the newer Lakewoods. Just a heads up before you go drop the money on one to store a bunch of rubber. |

Location: MN | The Just Encase boxes are the best out there and are so fricken tough. Bob makes the best stuff around. His material even cuts out 100% of UV light and prevents fading of baits in your box. http://justencase.com/water.html |

| I absolutely love this box. I use this box for pounders , medussas, 14 inch squirkos . I have been using it for 2 years and have not had any problems with rubber reacting to this box in a negative way. I got lucky and got mine for 50 bucks in a silent auction at the Indiana muskie classic 2 years ago . |

Location: Pewaukee, WI | I picked up a Extreme box about 4 years ago and there was a note inside that said that they do not recommend using it with rubber baits. Even hanging hard baits with rubber fishtails on them it melted into the dividers. I contacted Lakewood and they where great to work with and they replaced the dividers. They have changed the material that was giving them problems with the rubber and it holds up great with rubber baits. I like the box and it holds a ton of big baits! I like the fact that you can take the box out when needed instead of having everything staying in the boat. |

| It was love at first sight with my lakewood extreme. My secret is to buy late on Sunday at the shows and use cash. The extreme box in my boat sometimes get used as a butt seat for rip trolling, a work surface for making sandwiches, ceviche, or laying out large maps like command central. I like that I can put it in the truck when need be with all the priceless tools in there. I've had mine six years now and it seems to be holding up well to the way I use it. |

Location: Planet Meltdown | That's good to know that Lakewood changed the materials that had issues with rubber baits. I have two Lakewood mediums. One for casting baits and one for trolling. They are older boxes I bought them used and you can tell they have been put through good use and are still holding up very well. I like them a lot. |
