Keep Tackle and Rods Organized Behind Your Kayak Seat
Reaching behind the seat for tackle can interrupt your fishing and force you to twist around in the cockpit. The YakGadget LowPro Crate XD uses a low, leaning design with angled dividers that position stored tackle boxes toward you, giving frequently used gear a more accessible home in the rear storage area.
Organized Storage for a More Fishable Kayak Setup
- ✅ Angled dividers lean tackle boxes toward the seat for easier access from the fishing position
- ✅ Holds Plano 3700-size boxes plus 3600-size boxes positioned horizontally with the dividers

- ✅ Soft cover lifts for access to the crate and adds an extra storage pocket for smaller gear
- ✅ Designed to fit most kayaks with a rear storage area and secure in place with bungee cord
- ✅ Optional Side Rod Tube Lift Kit raises the side rod tubes to provide additional clearance over popular fishing-kayak gunnels

Real-World Performance
Set the LowPro Crate XD in the kayak's rear storage area, secure it with bungee cord, and use the angled interior to keep tackle boxes leaning toward the seat instead of standing straight up behind you. That layout is especially useful when changing presentations throughout the day, while the six rod holders keep additional setups together at the crate rather than competing for cockpit storage.
Turn the Tankwell into Working Fishing Storage
Use the LowPro Crate XD to give tackle and spare rods a dedicated place behind the seat while keeping the gear you change throughout the day easier to reach.
