    Default How do you store your jigs and hooks?


    How do you guys store your Jigs, Jig Heads and Hooks? I have all my Jigs, Jig Heads, and Hooks stored in separate plano tackle boxes and it seems like the jigs looses color from all the moisture and the hooks and jig heads develop rust overtime. In the near future I am planning to just keep all the stuff in the original package to prevent all of this.

    Heavy duty zip lock plastic bags. You can buy in bulk in any dimensions from Lurecraft or use freezer bags.
    Just remember to keep the bad away from the good - rust spreads as does oxidizing lead.

    i spray my jighead boxes with reel magic after every outing and my jighead boxes have holes in them to keep air flowing through.

    Wouldn't humidity eventually circulate into the box and rust the hooks?

    The moisture trapped in the boxes with no holes speeds up the process and that's why I spray Reel Magic on them. Keeps them oily and doesn't affect the pain.
