Buck tail storage idea

[hookset]

What do you guys use to store your buck tails? I currently have been using the clear plastic boxes which are great to bring on the boat but I have been painting and tying my own buck tails for about 5 years now and have entirely to many to store in these boxes! I have used regular boxes and coffe cans but don't like them sitting on top of each other! Any suggestions? I have thought about doubling the amount of trips I go on to lose more but the wife won't have that!!!!

They make boxes for spinnerbaits for bass fishing.These would probably work for jigs as well.

I have a thin piece of braided wire from the home depot strung up tight with eye bolts under a shelf.
Tie em and hang em. Use em wash em and hang em up to dry.
Cheap and simple

I use those roll-up style jig bags ... sometimes used for plastic offshore trolling lures.. whether its jigs or bucktails you can slide them in there side by side, 3 or 4 per slot, then roll the whole thing up and tie it/velcro it nice and tight. they won't clang around against each other like they will in a tackle box. and you can stash the roll in your boat bag just like it was a rolled up towel. you can store 20-30 of them this way.

i keep mine in those snack size zip lock bags, they take up less space that way, when im done usin them i hang them from a sinker bucket i keep in the boat to dry

I like this idea a lot a new plan for me plus very easy to wash

I use Black Bart lure bags. Durable, hold a ton of bucktails and they dry out well after every trip!

They have the roll up bags

I dont like the jigs banging into each other, too much time invested in tying to have the hair messed up when going to fish.
I roll each bucktail in a small zip lock snack bag.
then put a small piece of painters tape to hold it rolled , on which I use a marker to write the weight on it.
Then stack them into plastic plano boxes.
I carry a tackle bag that holds 4 of those boxes. and refill it as necssary.
It keeps them dry, and in perfect condition until fished

I use the same bag as Richie. Works great and self draining when they're used in the kayak.
