Abstract: A storage system for incorporation in a boat or other vessel. The storage system includes an integrated fish landing net storage compartment which is readily accessible to a fisherman standing on a casting deck of a boat. The dedicated storage compartment keeps a dirty and/or wet landing net away from other stowed items. The storage compartment is accessible via a dual-lid access hatch with latch built into the casting deck. The storage compartment preferably comprises a polyethylene storage box which is self-draining to the bilge, allowing the storage box to be cleaned easily. The storage compartment further has a snag-free design which whereby the storage box has no protruding hardware, Therefore, the landing net will not get caught during retrieval or stowage. In addition, universal and adjustable mounting brackets are used which allow for adaptation to many different boat models, as well as providing the ability to retrofit pre-existing boat models.
