Has anyone found a good way to store donkey (double fluke) rigs when not in use?

This is an effective presentation but not one you want to spend time putting together on the water, at least not a kayak.
 

I use 10 lb fluoro which I can already see is getting tangled and kinked in the baggie I have it in. Gotta be some way of storing them to protect the delicate fluro and prevent tangles/kinks.

I rig them up and put them in the bag with the flukes. An empty bag would be better. I'm using mono though.

If I fished them, I would use at least a 3/4” wood dowel cut to about 2”.  I would drill a small hole in one end to insert and hold the hook, and then wrap line snugly around the dowel.  I would probably wrap away from the hook and then back, and tuck tag end of line through hook eye.  Small, stiff tubing would also work.  Whether a dowel or a tube, I would want the largest diameter that allows easy storage.
