Compact Tackle & Tool Organizer Storage System

The Side Bro is a compact, low-profile storage system designed to keep your essential tools and tackle exactly where you need them. Mounted directly to your kayak, boat, fishing setup, cooler or chair, it keeps the tackle and tools you use most exactly where you need them, ready the moment the action starts.

Built around a rigid, patent-pending rear mounting plate, the Side Bro can be installed on a wide variety of surfaces - including curved or uneven ones - using adhesive, Velcro®, or double-sided tape. This eliminates the need to drill holes into kayaks, consoles, coolers, or boat interiors while still providing a strong, reliable connection. Designed and built tough with injection-molded recycled plastic in Australia, we’ve created the new standard in tackle mounting solutions. The BerleyPro Side Bro is the only tackle solution specifically built for every fisher-persons demands.

Great bit of gear

Easy to put together and even easier to install, I used double sided tape to attach straight to the side of my tinny. Made out of quality plastic and has been through a bit already and held up well. It’s really tidied up my tinny as there’s no more lures,pliers,etc getting chucked wherever and then wondering where they are

Side Bro in my Evo Centre Console

Great to support an Aussie company making something for a hobbies I love - boats and fishing. Excellent bit of kit to increase storage for fishing tools and lures that can get left all over the place.

Game changer

Staying organised on the water can be the difference between and good and bad day fishing. The side bro helps me stay prepared acting as a ‘Day Box’ giving me fast access to the changing fishing conditions. Easy to install and super clean I love my side bro!

Side bro

So glad I added the full package together with the Side bro and backing plate Dividers, Tool bro to make the boat so much neater
The stow bro had helped keep the dogs paws and kids fingers away from lures id generally cut off and leave in a pile
Pliers and scissors end up back where they should and are easily accessible
Great idea this product guys

Side Bro

Recently installed the SideBro in my tinny because I needed somewhere to put the lures that I have used. As a person who take his dog out in the boat this design is awesome as I can hang my lures on the dividers and know that the other trebles are protected in the SideBro. Great peace of mind knowing that my dog won’t get hooked on them.

The storage Solution I've been waiting for

Perfect to keep everything handy and the hook points away from me, even better that I don't even need to drill any holes!

Handy!

Its handy and sores all my used lures neatly as well as some accessories on my yak. Good product!

Sidebro

Super handy for tools and lures, great design as it has drainage in the bottom for lures so they don’t rust.

Very versatile for mounting as I used velcro tape as I didn’t want drill into aluminium.

Great storage solution

Awesome storage solution for your kayak, boat, or anywhere else it fits, really! Well made piece of gear that'll survive the elements and keep your pliers, scents, lures etc. stored and organised on the go.

Game changer! No more gear chaos!

Piece of equipment made by boaties who understand how big of a difference having organised tackle on the water can be.
No more loosing tools or having hooks in places they shouldn’t be.
Straight forward but makes time on the water that bit more enjoyable.

Organise the chaos

Everyone knows how chaotic big sessions can get on the water, lures everywhere, hooks waiting for you to stand on them, never knowing where the pliers are. This is a game changer, everything you need in one place, keeping the boat tidy is so easy, I keep one on the cast deck and one beside me at the back of the boat

Slide bros are awesome

Love. this product. Easy to fit solution for hanging lures and accessories whilst out and about on the water. No more lures spread across the deck on my boat!

Lynx side bro

The product itself fits perfectly the Lynx search and fully meets my expectation. However it missed the 5* ranking because there is no assembling instructions and therefore it took me time before understanding how to fit it in the seat. It think you can easily fix this by just adding a piece of paper with just a picture showing how to do it.

Great piece of kit for the PA14, pliers knife and scissors are all ready to hand, still plenty of space for smaller items as well.
Highly recommended

Easy install. Keeps necessities handy. With the P.A. 14 front rod slots these stay out of the way as opposed to mounting on side of kayak.

So convenient!

Love my Van Bro, its perfect for holding all my tools and extra plastic. The way it sits on the side of the chair it barely takes up any room! Don't sleep on this one.

Great product!

I can’t believe I operated without this kit beforehand. Easy to install and can hold a lot of stuff. It makes it easy when dealing with big fish and needs dispatchers ready, and also, I use one side to store sinkers when fishing tidal systems. I couldn’t recommend this product enough.

Love the Side Bro! Great for soft plastics (in bag) and small boxes.

This fit in perfectly where my Hobie rubber mesh was located. No problems.

I got one for each side, and on one I put the plastics I’m using that day (holds 4 easily) and on the other I have a small(ish) Plano box stuffed with drops shot hooks and weights, wacky hooks, o-rings, and other small terminal tackle. I had carried all that in small boxes in my PFD, but now have lots more room!

Frank Yang
Berley Pro Side Bro (Side A)

Solid and durable product that does what I need it to do, hold tools and gives me a quick place to place spent lures. I have mine on a Hobie Compass and when you have tools it does block full use of your cup holder but that thing's useless anyways.
