Where Do You Lay Your Bait?

For months now I have been stacking my baits on cookie sheets and tackle boxes like this while waiting for a second color or for curing:

This method I found to be a nightmare at times. :banghead

So my wife had the suggestion last week of why don't I just purchase a oil pan from Wal-Mart for $12 and stack them on it.

Now my nightmare has gone away. Had a 16 dozen order the other day and it only took up about 3/8 of the pan.

Just thought I would share this as it has helped me keep my baits organized.

I'm more of a speed guy. So I leave mine on the runner while curing. Also comes in handy for time to bag. You know how many is on a runner so no individual counting needed. Granted it does take up more space leaving the runner. Which is why I've acquired 20 something cookie sheets!

Looks like you've been plenty busy I like that commercial cookie sheet going to have to get me a few of them.

Automotive area?

Yes. Next to the oil drain pans and oil.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Great idea, is the pink and ylw chart on the pan on the left flap jacks? And what are the black, pink and chart jigs on the right in the first pic?

In the top pic they are the makings of these baits:

2.5" Willow Tail I had Rick Jacobs make me and

2.5" Mo Magic.

In the bottom pic all the Chartreuse Creme baits are 2.5" and 3" Mo Magic, 2" Willow Tail, 2.4" Stinger Swimbait and 1.5" Thump Grub.

I like those!! The chart and the pink really pop in the pics!!

Very nice!!!!!!! Like those pans - when I pour a lot of jigs having one pan instead of 3 would really help!! Thanks

Thank you huskerwill.

I'm telling you one large pan is a dream. One of these is cheaper than numerous cooking pans.

How long do you air cure your baits? I just place them into my boxes as soon as I am done pouring for the day. Dave

48 hours before I bag em. Probably could get away with only 24 though.

THANKS
