Preston Innovations Absolute 5G Deep Tray Unit

Preston Innovations Absolute 5G Deep Tray Unit | High-Capacity Storage

The Preston Innovations Absolute 5G Deep Tray Unit is a robust, modular storage component designed to house the bulkier essentials of a modern match anglers armory. Utilizing the revolutionary Mag-Lok magnetic technology, this unit provides a secure and reliable connection to any Absolute 5G or Absolute Station stack. While side drawers are excellent for small items, the Deep Tray is the primary choice for storing large pole winders, bulky feeders, and specialized terminal tackle that requires significant vertical clearance.

At Gerrys Fishing, we recommend the Deep Tray for anglers who need to carry a wide variety of Plan B gear. Its generous depth makes it the ideal catch-all storage unit that sits perfectly within your main seatbox stack or as part of a secondary transport unit.

Technical Specifications

Key Features & Benefits

• Mag-Lok Magnetic Security: No more struggling with broken or stiff plastic clips. The Mag-Lok system uses powerful magnets to ensure the tray stays perfectly aligned and locked within your stack, even when traversing bumpy terrain on a Preston Shuttle.

• Increased Vertical Clearance: The Deep profile is specifically designed to accommodate the largest Preston Pole Winders (including the wider 26cm and 30cm versions). It also provides enough room for EVA accessory bags and bulkier items like catapults or spare reels.

• Weatherproof Protection: Each unit features a high-quality rubber gasket seal. When the trays are stacked and the lid or seat is applied, the internal contents remain completely dry and protected from dust and groundbait spray.

• Top-Loading Accessibility: Unlike side drawers, the tray unit provides a full birds-eye view of your tackle once the seat or tray above it is lifted. This makes it incredibly easy to find specific items quickly during a busy session.

• Lightweight Durability: Despite its size and depth, the unit is constructed from premium polymers that offer exceptional strength without adding excessive weight to your overall station.

Where to Use: Recommended Scenarios

• Large Winder Storage: The perfect home for your deep-water or heavy-river pole rigs that are tied on larger, wider winders to prevent line kinking.

• Feeder Bulk Storage: Ideal for storing a massive selection of window feeders, cage feeders, and distance leads that wouldnt fit in a standard shallow drawer.

• Accessory Case Housing: Use the deep tray to hold multiple small EVA cases containing your spare elastics, plumbing tools, or specialized hooklength spools.

• Modular Versatility: Use this as the base unit of your stack to keep the center of gravity low, providing better stability for your seatbox on uneven banks.

The Gerrys Fishing Verdict

The Absolute 5G Deep Tray Unit is an essential building block for any serious seatbox setup. It provides the heavy-lifting storage capacity that match anglers need to cover all eventualities. The Mag-Lok system makes it a dream to use, and the build quality ensures your expensive terminal tackle remains protected for years to come.

Gerrys Pro Tip: If you find you have a bit of dead space in your deep tray, use a Preston Accessory Box or a piece of foam to keep your items from sliding around. Keeping your heavy feeders separated from your delicate pole winders in the same tray will prevent damage during transport
