A storage device, preferably one sufficiently buoyant to float on water, comprises a hollow multiple compartment housing including a first compartment for storing emergency supplies or tackle, a second compartment for storing a spool containing a stored portion of a fishing line wound around said spool, an access opening to extend and wind an exterior portion of the line around a recessed wall portion of the housing that surrounds the second compartment without disturbing the portion of the line stored on the spool and a hollow third compartment having a light reflecting portion at its forward axial end. A handle for the multiple compartment housing comprises thin connecting means extending radially outwards from the multiple compartment housing to connect the latter with a hollow storage chamber that is located radially outward and axially rearward of the second compartment. The radially outward position of the handle provides a mechanical advantage to hold the device when a fish bites. The axial rearward position of the handle provides a mechanical advantage for casting the fishing line. The device is constructed and arranged to tilt upward in the forward direction to support the access opening above the water line when the box floats on water when the supplied and/or tackle and spool are stored in their respective compartments.
