What is a Stowaway?
A stowaway is someone who hides on a train, bus, plane, or ship in the hope of traveling for free. There are a number of reasons to stowaway on board a craft, ranging from illegal immigration to a dare.

A handful of people who made a new start in the Americas, for example, were stowaways

Modularity with the StowAways means you can set up each specific StowAway for a different purpose. Quick illustrations are one for soft plastics, one for hard plastic/wood crankbaits and topwaters, one for small parts (weights, hooks, spinnerbait blades, beads, swivels, etc.) and so on. If you need 2 or 3 trays just for soft plastics, for example, you can further divide them any way you desire. For instance by color (one box per light, medium, dark) or one box for Gitzits, one for worms/grubs, one for soft jerk baits, by light, medium, or heavy tackle applications, etc. Whatever’s best for you! That’s what I mean by modularity, and your boxes actually become building blocks. You can quickly switch between which trays you do or do not take with you on a trip. For smaller components like hooks and swivels, they will work th
