storing Stretch and Rapalas

Hello:

I would like to know the best way to store Manns Stretch 30+ and
Rapala CD-18 style lures. I have been using the cardboard boxes that
they came in but after a few trips they fall apart and then reaching
into my tackle duffle bag means getting your fingers pricked!!!

What do other people do?

thanks,

FGA

Depending how many you have a Pano 3700 size plastic box works 'ok'.
Or if you're using them aboard a roomy boat you can scoop one of those
20 litre pails that so many things come in these days, notch the rim
and hang them in it.

I have two tackle boxes, one for bottom fishing, the other for trolling.
You can get this design, (I think it's a Plano) most anywhere but the
variation I like is the one with long slots that will take a 10" lure, 3-4
or so in the top and in the bottom, maybe 2ea 4-6" lures per slot times 4.
(I believe I have 2-3 Stretch 25's and one larger. The box is not here so I
can't check).The top also has the right half in a big, maybe 8 x 12 "tray"
that holds several jigs with the 2-3' of ss leader attached or just 6" coils
of ss leader.

Take a look next time you go into Wal or Kmart. The box is cheap, lures easy
to get to--works for me!
