(PRICE w/o GST) - MEIHO BUCKET MOUTH BM-5000

The Meiho Bucket Mouth BM-5000 is the compact powerhouse of the family. It is specifically designed for "Run & Gun" fishing, kayak angling, or light offshore trips where space is at a premium but you still want the legendary durability of the Bucket Mouth series.

🛠️ Technical Specifications

🚀 Why the BM-5000?

If the 9000 is a "trunk" and the 7000 is a "suitcase," the 5000 is your heavy-duty backpack.

• Small Footprint: Its square-ish dimensions make it the most stable option for kayaks or small skiffs where floor space is limited.

• Angle-Lift Handle: The handle is designed to lock upright or fold flat, and it features a grip that makes it comfortable to carry even when fully loaded with lead sinkers or jigs.

• The "Tough Seat": Despite its smaller size, it retains the reinforced lid structure. It’s the perfect height for sitting while waiting for a bite during shore or pier fishing.

📦 Interior Organization

Because it is smaller, maximizing the 20L space is key. It is designed to fit:

• VS-3010 Series: You can fit 5 x VS-3010ND cases vertically.

• Inner Tray: Comes with one shallow tray for immediate-access items.

• Compatibility: It works perfectly with the SFC-L size cases and VS-700 series.

🔧 Recommended Accessories

The BM-5000 has two attachment slots on each side. Because the box is lighter, I recommend a balanced setup:

1. Rod Stand BM-250 Light: Perfect for holding a spare rod without making the box too "top-heavy."

2. Parts Holder BM-100: Great for clipping onto the side to hold discarded line or used lures.

3. Shoulder Strap: Unlike the 9000 (which is often too heavy for a strap), the 5000 is light enough to carry over your shoulder comfortably using the Meiho heavy-duty strap.

• BM-5000: Light jigging, Tenya, Kayak, or Pier fishing where mobility is your priority.
