    I too think it is a great idea but for me I think I will get me some of these to fix up as my boxes are always getting wet. Again great the way you have fixed the boxes.

    Stevew,

    I admire your ingenuity. Great idea.

    CK3,

    What a great idea to mention old plastic VHS boxes as well. I knew they could still be good for something.

    Being goofy and knocking things around at the worst possible time, I picked up a plano pro latch box with no dividers. Gonna use the foam wedge idea and see how it turns out.

    I made up 45 of the VHS/noodle jig boxes and I just love em!!!
    Now my jigs are sorted by size and material used. Easy to do and
    easy to use. When I unload the boat I just put em on the shelf and they're good to go next spring!!!!
    Great idea Steve, you're a genious

    Thanks goes out to stevew



    I decided to use clear VHS boxes. I've got 7 full so far, and working on more.

    I bought some ammo boxes at the gunshop and use those partitioned boxes.....have one for 1/16 ounce jigs, one for mini jigs and one for the 1/8 ounce. Just slip the jighead into the shell compartment and the skirt shows. Holds a hundred jigs in each box. Best to take a few jigs along when picking out the plastic boxes.

    Hot glue them in the box in a step pattern.


    I have alot of these made up with different flies in them and have just started making them for my jigs.You can put a label on the back and store them on a shelf or it makes them easy to sort through in a tackle bag or boat box.
