    The right action, I will have to learn. This is all I know about it at this stage.
    Hook size and jig weight are as important to me as the lure itself. The action of a lure is affected by a hook that's too long; hook ups are reduced by hooks that are too short; jig weight affects presentation - horizontal or vertical speed & drop.

    I hate a mess in my tackle box or when storing tackle - especially small jigs with their small hooks all in a tangled mess!For storing jigs and keeping the hooks from getting tangled, I use storage foam from packages received in the mail. (Amazon, Ebay)

    Slits are cut to hold hooks and keep the jigs seperated by jig weight and hook size.
    This an example of the jig box I take in the boat:

    For storage on the wall, I use the same foam and slits and keep them in a plastic zip lock bag. Jig weight and hook size are separated per bag and an inventory list is hung next to the bags of jigs hanging. This way I can keep track of usage and jigs I have to reorder.

    Note that jig weight and hook size are labeled. Each bag has one jig weight and hook size.
