jig rig storage bucket
For the past several years I used pieces of pool noodles to wrap my capps and coleman rigs and jig rigs around but wasn't really satisfied with this and came up with an idea that I'm trying this season. I went to Lowes and bought 6- 10 ft. joints of thin wall 1/2" pvc pipe. I cut the tubing up and bundled together with duct tape. I mixed and poured fiberglass resin into an aluminum pie pan and sat the bundle into the pan ( to seal the bottom of the tubes). After the resin had set up I placed the bundle in a 5 gal. bucket and used a can of spray foam sealant to secure it in the bucket. I can now store 52 rigs in the bucket tangle free with easy access. I'm going to get a bucket lid and glue some foam to the bottom of the lid to prevent the rigs from getting tangled in case the bucket tips over. If anyone here has any ideas on how to improve this please chime in.

It probably would but the two gallon bucket would be too short, and the tubes not deep enough to get the jigs and lines down into the tubes. Optimally I would have used the taller paint bucket so my tubes would be taller.

If you have a Firehouse Subs near you, you can buy their empty pickle buckets (with O-Ring) for $2 donation

$2 for a bucket? Check at any store with a deli/bakery and ask for their buckets. They may put you on a waiting list.
I went to one store/deli and asked. I haven't had a chance to wash them yet. Washed, doesn't matter. I got 20 2 gallon and 10 5 gallon buckets with lids.
At a recycle center I meet the recycler, trade my stuff for buckets. I have to dig in the container for lids.

Im not to sure of how high the tube come up. What do you have to stop them from pouring out if it would get knock over?
All men are created equal, some work harder in the preseason.
