Fishing Lures Plug

What is the best tacklebox?
My boyfriend wants a nice tackle box for Christmas. Price isn't a concern but it has to have the following:
Separate slots for plugs, lures, hooks, etc.
Waterproof (which is the hardest thing to find)
Corrosion resistance (used for saltwater fishing in gulf)
Preferably have individual boxes so he doesn't have to lug the whole thing around if he is going to the front of the boat.
Envelope/bags for softbait
Yet compact enough to fit under the console.
Any suggestions? He's not a guide but acts like one, lol. Something nice yet efficient.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
One word PLANO! has to be the best brand in my experience for keeping hooks, plugs etc safe and secure. Ive tried others but they break, these never let me down. These should all suit the purpose

These are also excellent

The key thing to consider is the comfort of carrying the fishing gear, if like me he is willing to walk for miles to catch fish, you really need to consider a bag that he can put over his shoulder and it will be comfortable to carry long distances, becuase by the time you carry your rods, bait bucket etc your hands can get pretty full up. I also suggest a bag, and for that get the smaller plano tackle boxes to put inside, most bags have a waterproof base and are pretty tough

for ultimate bad weather

These are a good option too, comfortable and lots of space

These are also a good option to add to any bag/box you buy, they have larger compartments and "zerust" technology, which stops corrosion from setting in on your plugs, hooks, swivels etc

You can also buy the zerust capsules on their own to add to youre box, ive added them to all my tackle bags and they do work
