I usually put them back in the same bag, if they are not too bad. I store mine in original bags or clam shells. I just put the bait in backwards in the bag, if the tails are on the right, I’ll reverse put the tail on the left. I’ll use it first next time, then they go in the coffee jar to use as trailers or Ned’s. After I’ve used them up they get melted down into some open pour molds. I don’t think I’ve ever caught anything on them, but it’s fun. I don’t separate colors or anything, got some unique colors sometimes.

Geeeez……LOL

I’m going with @Jig Man WD-40

I store all my plastics in original packaging, I do like @PhishLI.

Texas rigged 7 “ curly tailed worm ( June bug) and top waters is what I use most this time of year. Sometimes I’ll throw a rattletrap ( chrome blue or black back). What part of Fl are ya north, south, central?

I’ve caught smallies in the winter in Nc on jigs, but it was tough going. It was the only thing I could get them to bite on though. A green pumpkin jig with a green pumpkin netbait baby craw. Had to work the deep holes in the river real slow.

Hang in there, get well soon.

Good deal, sounds like a good day out.

@AJ Hauser I use my live well for storage LOL

@AJ Hauseryes my Polar Kraft is similar the sports x model….. I have some storage but not a lot. Wish I had rod lockers. earlier picture not yet finished here.

Not trying to steer you away from Bass Resource……. Tinboats.net I got a lot of information from there, I’ve did a couple of tin boats. I have a welded Polar Kraft 15/48 mod.v. I’m real happy with it. There is a ton of different options. I like to keep my boat simple, not a lot of accessories, less to go wrong and maintain .

Safe travels

@ol'crickety oh ditch bag got it….. it just clicked, smart…….it’s good to always be prepared.

What’s a ditch kit?

My condolences to family, Rip

I’m about the same way, except for lightning . It does change where I fish, Lake George can get nasty quick, I’ll go more north and fish the St Johns.

@Munkin Thank you for offer but got some coming. I also I saw some beads, fluorescent red and green at Walmart. Don’t know if all of them carry them, for making leaders.

Thanks for posting, I like checking out new places

I’ve got skillets, deep skillets with basting lids, cast iron griddle, Dutch ovens plus a waffle maker. I like cast iron cookware. My nieces and nephews call them my cowboy pots. I can hang them over the fire pit, cook bake beans, chili and they love beanie weenies.

I love the sounds of nature, the birds, gators and the turtles splashing going in the water. I love for them to be interrupted by the sound my reel makes when the drag is getting peeled out. I’m like “oh yeah…. Game on”

I set mine drag loose like @Woody B and use the thumb assist method, I feel I have better control.

Thanks @Chris Catignani @detroit1 @Bdnoble84 Im putting together and order, the bait monkey would be proud. thanks again GRiver

Good deal seems he is on the road to recovery

Congratulations….. my Grandfather used to say ….congratulations on the baby ,say goodbye to a full nights sleep hahaha
