plastic bait storage question

[LittleStick]

I use clear 3”x4” ziplock type bags that are 4 mil thick. Kinda like the ones some bait companies will send your order in. They aren’t expensive. Then I have a smallish, light carrying zipper bag with the bigger ziplock binder sheets that I put the 3x4 bags into. Sorted by like colors or whatever floats your brand of OCD. You can usually fit more with less bulge this way if they come in bigger packages like Garlands, etc. If the og package has a seal and is small, or there a reason to keep them in the og packaging (pre-scented/oiled or there’s too many to fit in the 3x4 without smooshing or wading them up for example), then I just leave them. You can pray a little slab sauce or whatever in the 3x4s to keep them moist if you use the stuff anyways. Some like WD-40. But if you keep them out of the heat and sun, they keep fine as is.

I use a clear storage box that also fits in the carrying bag for jig heads, hooks, other lures. And another one for bobbers, weights, etc. It’s got a few pockets inside and a zipper pouch for anything else. This setup is ideal for bankfishing creeks and stuff with the shoulder strap, but the basic idea applies to bigger bags or binders.
