the problem i have found with using any "household" bags for boat purposes is that the zippers tend to get stuck after a little exposure.

I have one large bag that holds 7 plano trays and has pockets for whatever else - leader spools, small tools, etc. simlar to the large one of these Bass Pro Shops Extreme Boat Bags | Bass Pro Shops
I end up switching out boxes depending on what type of fishing i plan on, but usually it is good for a few weeks as seasons progress. I have one plano that has all hooks & terminal tackle that never leaves the box, and one with sinkers that also never leaves the bag.

Then I have a white bucket that I usually throw a bag of frozen squid or some other bait I am bringing, and i throw a bait knife and a lip gripper in there. When I am fishing, i usually end up hanging the lures/rigs that I am switching between on the bucket, and then sort it all out when I get home, instead of constantly putting them back in their trays.

I would like to find a better system, but haven't yet. And not for lack of looking.
