DO yall keep your Soft plastics in bags or boxes? If in bags what do you keep all the bags in?

My system is pretty minimalistic.  I keep all my plastics in the original packaging and I don't have a boat so I'm either wading or bank fishing.  At home I keep my plastics in a large drawer and have a small over-the-shoulder bag I use while fishing.  Before each fishing trip I will add bags of plastics I think I will need and take out what I think I don't need.  This usually doesn't change much unless it's a season change (summer fishing to winter fishing). Otherwise it's usually just replenishing what I'm running short on. It's very rare that I wish I had brought a certain plastic with me.  Usually I'm wondering why I brought so much because my bag is too heavy!

Original packages.  Groups of 'like items' (stick worms; finesse; paddletail swimmers; beavers; trailers) into one-gallon ziploc bags.  Then all into a backpack.  Has made my plastic life MUCH better since I went to this system.

We just had several threads on this; you'll find useful info if you search the forums for those.

That was helpful.  Thanks.  Couple/few links would be 'useful', also

In separate horizontally divided Plano boxes. One box for each style...Creature, stick, swim etc.

X2.  I keep it to confidence colors and styles/brands.  I keep my stockplie of favorites and the rest of them in a plastic 3 drawer organizer stand from wallyworld.  

I keep all my plastics in their original bags and have a special tackle bag for them. 

I keep the majority in the original bags and keep the ones I'll be using in a Flambeau 1/2 satchel. The few I keep in boxes are hollow body swim baits (the pkgs. are too bulky) and toads.

I keep them in original package in a spiderwire binder with 10 pages and 2 packages per page.

 

Original Bags, then into Gallon Ziploc Freezer Bags, then into cheap clear Sterlite storage containers from Target (cheaper than Plano).

ill empty my go to colors and place em in a plano box. and the rest go in a zip lock with whatever they are  (beavers. trick worms. flukes. paca craws. etc)

They stay in the bag they come in, then go into ziplock two gallon bags, then they go into a small shoulder backpack I have from Shimano.

I store my plastics in the original bags then I organize them by style into 15-20 quart Zip Lock weather proof storage containers. I live by these things. Thus far I have 3; 1 for all style worms/grubs/senkos, 1 for swimbaits/flukes, 1 for craws/creature/tubes. They stay in my garage, put them in the trunk when I go fishing, then take the packs out that I think I need or take the whole container when fishing out of a boat.
