How do you store your plastics/jigs?

I was curious if the majority of you store your plastics/jigs in it’s original packaging or keep them in a tackle box/Plano style with dividers for each individual bait like the pic? I’ve always kept them in their packages because I’m a bank fisherman but I’m tired of digging through 50 bags of bait to find the one I want LOL. Also......apparently, if you DO store your plastics/jigs in a tackle box your supposed to add a little mineral oil to the baits to keep them fresh and from drying out and fading in color. I was unaware of this tip and just heard about this. Is this true? Thanks fellas!

I have just changed from original packages to plastic boxes. Like you I was tired of digging through bags to find the color. I had previously tried the binder style bags. Did not like those wither. The lures should be coated with worm oil when they made them. Should be able to used a few drops of that

I do both original packages as well as boxes. On my bulk ordered items I have them in Plano boxes then the little packs of random lures are left in original packages in open compartment Plano boxes. Everything is in 3600 boxes and interchangeable in my crate.

I heard you can use worm oil OR mineral oil.......Mineral oil is what I bought, just want to make sure that is safe to use.

mineral oil is what plastics folks use when they make the baits :highfive

I went from packages to plastic boxes with mineral oil and SLAB or G sauce for added stank!
:biggrin

I store in original bags, which are stored in boxes I made specifically for that size BG.
I stock a 3 Plano boxes with what I’m currently using.
