Storing stick baits
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.

Check out the the clear tube storage system from Amish Outfitters. The 7"-8'' one keeps all your RR 800s, Bandits, etc separated in clear tubes with lids which you mark with a sharpie. Organized, very neat, no more tangled hooks. Easy to switch out baits and put back in a clear case. Very user friendly. Works for me. Hope this helps.

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.

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.

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

I really like the b and b bait boxes. They will float if they fall over board and the baits will not tangle. I have used the tubes they were also nice it just seemed like they got damaged from heavy use. http://www.bbbaitbox.com/
