Shimano Blackmoon Backpacks (SHMBLKMOON20TA) – Front Load & Top Load Fishing Packs

Overview

The Shimano Blackmoon Backpacks are angler-inspired storage solutions designed to keep gear organized without slowing you down. Available in two versatile styles, FR (Front Load) and TP (Top Load), these packs are built to hold reels, terminal tackle, lures, line, and tools in dedicated, accessible zones. Expect premium fabrics, reinforced double-stitched seams, and corrosion-resistant zippers that stand up to busy days on the water while remaining approachable to carry and use.

Two models, two ways to organize

FR Front Load centers on front-accessible utility. You can reach four 3600-size tackle trays from the front drop-down flap for quick access to terminal tackle and lures. A Velcro-backed drop-down compartment can be secured on the go, while side zippers help lock the bag in place during transport. The storage area above the trays is an ideal spot for reels, tools, or valuables, and the side pockets provide fast access to leader material and pliers when you need them most.

TP Top Load is designed for a different rhythm. Its large middle compartment houses three 3700-size tackle trays, while a front compartment offers easy reach and a Velcro backwall with four removable tackle bags. This layout is excellent for organizing soft plastics, tools, or terminal tackle, giving you flexible configuration as scenes change from shoreline to boat deck.

Durable design for real-world use

• Heavy TPU corrosion-resistant zippers that glide smoothly even with salt spray or spray from handling gear.
• Heavy denier rip-stop polyester fabric that resists abrasion and wear from outdoor conditions.
• Reinforced double-stitched seams that stand up to regular use and heavy loads.
• Two models, FR and TP, to match your preferred fishing setup and access pattern.
