It's Time: THE TACKLE BOX.

[Iscah]

At least the saddlebag is a separate container from your general inventory so you can sort specific item types into as you like to find things easier. What would be helpful is for SE to detach it from the chocobo so it can be accessed at any time, then allow us to choose bait/lures stored in it just as we can choose those stored in our general inventory.

The reason you can't take the saddlebag anywhere (I assume you mean instances) is because all data in our inventory has to be transferred along with us. The intent of the saddlebag is to create some disconnected inventory that doesn't have to get transferred. You functionally do leave it behind and not carry it with you into the dungeon.


I suspect the coding for bait specifically includes instructions to look for baits in the inventory, deduct one [used bait] from inventory when you cast your line, etc. Maybe they can recode that, or maybe they don't want to fiddle with it.
