Storing stick baits

[Snowking]

I use Planos 3701 boxes. Those are the thin Version of the 3700. I then have a Shimano bag that came with the wider 3700 boxs. With the thin version boxes you can fit more crankbaits in the same size bag and still keep them somewhat separate. I will still put some small cranks of the same color together. I have two of these shimano bags. I normally have small cranks in one and large cranks in the other. With the boxes I can switch some stuff to one bag if I do not want to take both along.

Thanks a lot for the good info guys. I believe I will invest in the B&B. They don't appear to have a real good way of identifying each individual lure (by lure name), but that's no big thing.

I use the shorter version of the tube boxes for my worm harnesses since they are about 4"s long without the snell and when added the 5 inch snell goes in without a hitch, they work great! But I must note that I don't have the 60+" leaders to deal with, I keep those leaders wrapped on a leader tender.

wakina, do you use swivels to connect these harness segments together to your leaders?

I make mine on the order of a Mepps spinner! Been using this design for over 5 years now, and exclusively the last three years after some trial and errors! Here is a picture. No more pool noodles and open hooks for my grand kids to get into no more wrapping leaders. I just tie a standard leader the length I want and can switch from harness to spoon and back by just unsnapping and snapping on the new lure be it a spoon or a different harness pattern. No more twisted leaders either.

I bought a couple of these. Hold 14 each, 7 a side. They have drain slots and I just wrote lure names on the inside lid. I only have a couple dozen sticks and did not want to spend close to 100 bucks just to store my baits.

I just these in a small fishing bag to easily carry with me if needed

Wakina,

I think you have just made a convert. That solves a lot of problems. Now if I can find my wire bender? May be its time for a better one. Thanks for the info.. By the way--What the heck is a pool noodle? lol

Special mate boxes are definitely the way to go!

I use the same Branham and they are an inexpensive option.

You folks have provided a wealth of information over the years. I hope you can give me some good advice today. I have been storing my stickbaits in Plano 3730 Flipsiders. They hold 40 stickbaits in each box. I have 4 boxes, and they work very well for me. The problem is that box is evidently discontinue . I have about 60 more stickbaits that need to be stored on the boat. Question is, what are you all using to contain your lures? I appreciate all advice.

I use the Plano 3700 boxes (32 baits in each), because I don't have the room on my boat to store baits in the big B&B or Special Mate boxes. I agree those are nice to keep baits separated, but I can store up to 32 of the 3700 boxes in my boat's storage compartments, and keep the floors clear of stuff to trip over.
