Glad to hear that I’m not the only one that tries to take everything they own in the boat when they go fishing 😂
I keep going with my rucksack packed with all my lures when I only use about 4 different ones in a couple hour session 🤣 I'm walking up and down canals too!
You have a tackle shop in your house : D
Lol I'm just picturing a big bass down there thinking "I was going to eat that juicy worm but it's a little crooked so I think I'll pass."
ruins the action when its crooked

i like the idea of keeping the lures in their original bags, but in an open core waterproof box!
I 110% agree that the boxes are not only easier but way more efficient. I’m terrible at getting and staying organized. Since I bought all those boxes from you it’s been like a light bulb flipped on upstairs. Lol. Everyone should at least grab a couple boxes and try it out for a few months. Feel it out to see what you guys think. 9 times out of 10 y’all will stick with the boxes. Great video as always James! Thanks brother!
💪👊
I find the soft plastics don't bleed or suck up other colours like they did 20 years ago so keeping them in boxes definitely the way to go. Not as oily like they used to be
Agreed!
Great video! I converted everything to Plano boxes this year because of your vids and have been loving it. Keep up the informative vids.
Thanks Mike! Glad you like them man!
Great info that I would've not thought to ask about. I stopped a couple of months ago putting plastics in plano boxes do to the warping. Recently started doing tuba ware boxes for all access plastics that are left at home, over the previous gallon zip lock bags. Sweet Vid.
Thanks bro!
Thanks this video really helped me a lot and gave me a mindset to organize my soft plastics in the stoway box
Great video! I would really enjoy to make another series of my tackle box because I really love watching those kinds of videos. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks Jake!
Jim, thanks for pointing out the advantages of boxes over bags! I need to get better organized with boxes. I'm tired of trying to fish through gallon ziplock bags! LOL!
No problem Juanelo! Lol, I can imagine. Thanks for watching buddy!
Juanelo1946 lol
omg have been waiting for a video like this from you
TJ81, thank you for the Tackle Web pointer. Looked at them for my Triton 17TX but procrastinated. Now I HAVE to get them after seeing them in your boat. Great great vid!!!
No problem Buster!
Awesome video. I use to take all my soft plastic out of the bags and store them in the boxes however learned the hard way one day while I was at work, came out and all my soft plastic melted. Haha it was super hot that day. I also learned from trail and error, what works for me and what doesn’t. Now I just keep everything in their original bag. Much easier and a lot cleaner. No more oily, scented, salted boxes.
Great video.. Plasticizer in your plastics can definitely warp a box. With that said I only use boxes myself..a little warp never hurt anyone
once again another awesome video by tacklejunky! looking forward to that top summer baits video!
Thanks Greg! Top 5 Summer baits went up today.
Tackle junkie!!! the best!!!
i used to put mine in boxes but had issues with the warping. Ive gone to zippered bags like big bank cash bags and then organize by style. I love seeing how others organize their tackle great vid
Bags work too. Thanks for watching James!
Excellent info & ideas...thanks!
I was just looking at videos like these yesterday and couldn't find any reasonable but this one is great video man!
Thanks Colt!
Your organizational skills are second to none in my book, along with care and cleanliness you take on your equipment. Reel maintenance videos second to none. Really enjoy your out on the water videos too. When your making your videos you zoom in on the things your making your point about or the part your changing or whatever , and want you to know those things don't go unnoticed. Great job with your channnel !!!!
Much appreciated man! THANK YOU for watching and leaving such a nice comment.
I live near Plano Illinois and I go to the store all the time and it’s really really awesome
Insane! So insane I've subscribed. You're taking this hobby to another level. Very cool.
Thanks Joe! I appreciate the sub!
One of the best videos I have check out!
Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching! 👊
Just came across your channel. Good info, I'm always looking for betters ways to store my tackle.
Thank you!
yea I deff goin to your method. I always bagged mine and this yrs tournaments as well as that trip I went on that bagging is just not ideal anymore. baits get crimped sometimes. or just bent slightly but it throws off the whole action. thanks for the tips brother. I'll be switchin!!
No problem Greg!
I fish from a kayak, and bags definitely work better for me. Much easier to throw a couple of ziplocs in my crate. Not enough room for several boxes.
Same here i throw a few bags of soft plastics under the seat on my Jackson Cuda HD and it works for me.
Nice video man! I used to think the sapphire blue pit boss was a ridiculous color and wondered why I even bought it. That was until I finally got my first fish to the boat while punching it with a 1 oz tungsten last weekend lol.
Thanks bro! Sapphire Blue is one of my go to colors! Glad it worked out for ya.
Great video james! Good way to store your plastics man, i will be doing this thanks again, and GEEsh man!!!!!! You have a crap load of plastics brotha wow... u could start a small store of your own lmao
lol, Thanks dude!
Excellent demo Gene.... Got my order last spring and went striper fishing with it. Dipped a white 6 inch paddle tail in chartreuse and they would rip the tail off and then destroy what was left of my bait. PS. I was the only one catching anything! ;) NOTE: DO NOT USE ON ELAZTECH PRODUCTS....they will melt. cheers! Paul
Add a piece of clear tap over your labels on the plastic bags and the sharpie won't fade.
you are just way to organized lol...I can't even keep my socks in the same drawer
That's hilarious
same
i got 3 of the Flambeau containers from academy for$3.50 to $3.99 price range with the similair black handles like yours tackle junky and i love them so much because they keep your tackle stored very meticulously neat and nice looking and God almighty im so used to and just head over heels in love with them they wont spill and Flambeau does a very fantastis job at preventing and hindering spills and is great for bank anglers if you want to be neat and oaragnized. Thanks for your time in mkaing this tackle junky.
My pleasure buddy and I appreciate you watching!
@@TackleJunky81 youre welcome man. i just thought i would help another angler out and share information about these tackle binders. i did exactly what you did and stored my soft plastics in the tackle binders that were previously stored in a bass pro shop 3600 series tackle binder.
Nice Video Quality and Tips !!! I will definitely be a new subscriber !!
Thanks Joseph, appreciate the sub!!
Hi! New sub here; also new at serious fishing. Debo sent me
I’ve just acquired enough baits to have a storage problem so thanks for this video; it has helped e figure out what I think I’m going to do.
thanks for info I have been using bags also and ready to go to boxes tired of playing the bag search game LoL
Harry Smith try the water tight flambeau boxes
Harry Smith same man
Thanks for the great tip. I'll be buying some of those 3601 boxes next weekend.
No problem!
Great video man learned a lot from it I started to do it to ....
Thanks bro!
Before they were famous. Bass pro shop edition!!!
what do you think of biospawn, in particular the plasma tail? It's kinda expensive but they sound interesting. I'm a novice at fishing so I don't know if it is worth it at my skill level. I currently use soft baits like Zoom worms and craws.
I see that you use the waterproof Plano boxes for your plastics. Would you recommend these for the Rapala Dive To Series? Are they deep enough for ALL the series? I have all of them and recently purchased a new tackle bag and it came with cheap boxes.
I box all my stuff I use regularly...flipping baits, worms, and what not. Ziplock my things that are kinda off the wall or something I'll only on that specific lake. Really like those 2 gallon zip locks. They are definitely slower though. When i go to a new lake I'll swap stuff out that is lake/state specific.
Good stuff!
💪👊
Great Video!
I been wondering about this. the only reason I keep them in bags cause some come with like a smelly oil. but I should box the one's without. great video.
Thanks Miguel!!
I spray a lot of my plastic with smelly scent after I put them in a box. I allow some plastics to dry out, even to wither, and then soak in strong scent to rehydrate them. I'm going to try soaking them in pure fish oil for next spring. To me, strong smell is just part of fishing, and I don't mind it.
Great videos. Keep up the great work
Thanks Tyler!
Do they dry out at all? Do you need to add oil to them?
What affect does it have on the scented soft plastic baits , like the Berkley Max scent worms?
It’s a great idea. And I’ve tried it with the best of intentions. However, it never fails that I would be in a lil derby and somehow I’d get the red and white paca chunks or something mixed together in a box. The red dye bleeds and now I have pretty pink paca chunks. I like using about 5 small folders. I put all my worms in one folder, all my flipping baits in a folder......... sometimes I take them out of store packs sometimes like those with clam shell packs I don’t. Then i refill and change according to where I’m fishing next.
Ps: gotta try the pit boss non havoc power baits, max Scent!
What size hook would you rig the Gambler Why Not’s with? I just purchased some and want to rig them right.
Just curious, how much do you have invested in tackle, rods, reels etc?
You should make another my tackle vid with all your new stuff! Great vid!
Thanks John!
I have read most of your comments from this almost 3 year old video and a lot of guys think you have way to much and I hear that ever so often from the wife but she lets me do what I want in my Cave as long as it doesn't smell up the rest of the house LOL. I look at tackle buying as a more than enjoyable hobby because hobbies make you happy and when I stand back and look at my full boxes of soft plastics I am Happy. The wife tells me that my face lights up like Ralphy in The Christmas story getting his BB Gun every time I get a new box from UPS. And yes it's a sickness but an enjoyable one. I have worked all my life and at 66 years old fishing and buying more tackle is what I do. I quit smoking 26 years ago but enjoy a cold Beer sometimes in my Cave while I sit back and look at my growing arsenal. And the answer I give to my Wife on occasion is No Honey it's not possible. Thanks for your Videos.
You need to come and sort my spare room.........make the missus happy! 😂🇦🇺🐟🎣
Sweet video man! I was curious what boxes you suggest for terminal tackle? I seem to have problems with regular plano boxes and hooks sliding around into different sections. Thanks!
Thank you! Bass Mafia Coffin for terminal tackle. I plan to do a video on my terminal tackle box next week.
I like the setup you have. I’m colorblind so I have to leave my baits in the packaging so I can see what color I’m working with
Appreciate you watching buddy!
Great video, too bad I did the zip lock thing this year....lol I have a question on line conditioner, I mostly use braid, but have a few flouro reel set ups. How do you put the line conditioner on and how often?
Thanks Mark. KVD Line and Lure is the best conditioner that I've used. Works best if you let it dry on your line. Either the night before I plan to fish or on my way to the lake I spray my line so it has a chance to dry. Only takes a few squirts, just rotate the spool till you covered it all. You will know when its time to reapply, but I normally only spray it the one time each trip.
Do you keep stick baits in the bags or do you prefer to box them?...senkos, Ochoa...
I've done both.
Why doesn't Plano do a worm box? That box with worms is good but there are four ends with nothing in so just dead space
Nice video. Some good tips for storage.
Thank you!
Another good video Jim.
Thank you!
What series of box was the one that the crates where in
Nice organization but toooo much money man , at least for me.
Do you keep the soft plastics that are in the boxes in a climate control area. I like the box usage but in FL i worry about melting of lures. in original package i have not had any but had a box that had some old soft lures melt.
what is the size and model of the box you have your pitboss's in. looking to convert over to some of the shallow boxes and waterproof ones
Plano 3740
Good video. Thinking of storing some of my z man plastics in Plano box. But read their disclaimer against it do to ela z plastic technology. Guess I’ll keep them in the bag but wish there was a better way to store them.
Good vid man, and I think you should do your five best summertime baits soon
Thanks bro! That vid went up today!
Can u say what the part numbers on tho boxes are
I've been on the fence with doin this. I would prefer them in the Plano boxes but when you have 40 or more different types of baits the boxes would just take up so much room. Obviously u have a ton of tackle so I'm not sure how your gonna box that much plastic either. Post a video once your done so we can see how u make out which will help me decide also. Great videos man and thanks.
Will do bud! Thanks for watching!
Really informative. I started with my just in boxes, then switched to bags. That was due to fishing from the shore. I finally got a boat and I will definitely be switching back. Are those 4 or 5 inch Pitt Bosses? Thanks!
4" Pit Bosses. Thanks James!!
James Loh
Great tips and info on how to store worms
Thanks bro!
What is the type of box you are using for you're pit bosses I've been looking and can't find the box
Walmart carries them, they have a water tight seal in the lids. I started buying them especially for my terminal tackle. Tight lines...
Hey, I was just curious to know if your soft plastics melt in those boxes since they are out of their packaging?
I've never had that issue.
You should never have that issue in a "worm proof" box.
good stuff... I've bounced back and forth over the years... I like boxing them....
Thanks Troy!
good video , great tips👍
Thank you!
You have a small savings behind you lol love your organizing skills I'm pretty anal about my tackle as well keep up the good work
lol, Thanks for watching Mike!
This is exactly why I'm a saltwater fisherman here on the west cost...live anchovies, live sardines or live squid fished either fly lined or dropper loop.....and my irons/jigs, i keep those organized in a single free amazon shipping cardboard box, works best for me 😎
got that straight, it's a fetish thing for these guys.
I'm in the process of making this switch. I've been the type to throw all my soft plastics in zip locks, organized by type. Craws, Worms, Creatures, Swimbaits, Stickbaits, etc. I always wondered how the soft plastics would hold up in plano boxes. Especially some of the rage stuff. Will they lose their coffee scent faster outside of the bags and in a plano box? Will they stiffen up or dry out? Just questions I've had. I'm worried about some of my more soft/wet plastics that come scented for sure.
It just seems like a much better system, and reduces space by loading them all up in boxes instead of lugging around multiple large ziplocks crammed full of individual bags.
I've had plastics in boxes for a few years and have never had any issues with them losing their scent or drying out. I haven't put the Rage baits in boxes yet, but I plan too. Baits like you mentioned that come wet, I definitely box all of those as the bags become a huge mess.
Hi, i heard if you dont keep your soft plastics in the bag, it can ruin them or they can melt away making a mess. Whats your opinion on that? Ty
I've never had any issues, but keep baits like zman in the original bags.
Keep em Bagged. Thanks though TJ, im just watching older videos ;)
Really good vid, Bro !! But I live in southern GA and it gets pretty hot here in the summer. I was was fishing a couple weeks ago and was using soft plastics (Z-man, Gamagatsu, etc. ) on my jonboat. I covered the baits with a couple towels, but by the end of the 4 hour trip alot of them had melted together or warped....Any suggestions on how to avoid this ?
Thanks Rob. To be honest I really don't use Z-man because of all the issues with that type of plastic.
rob jones maybe a small lunch cooler for the Z - Man
i awesome video , will the boxes work for strike kings soft plastic with the coffee scent , that are not in clam shells? the reason i why i ask is because i use alot strike king product but the problem i have is there limit space on kayak and in the crate ,thank you TackleJunky81
I've put them in boxes before with no issues. SK is a softer soft plastic so I did get some warping with the dividers, but like I said in this video that doesn't bother me.
ok thank you TackleJunky81
i have my pit bosses in box and it aint warping at all. do you think maybe its the scent you put on the bait? also what scent are you using for them? thank you for the video by the way. this video is the reason why im a better organized fisherman!
It could be the type of box, but I doubt the scent. I use a mixture of different scents together. Thanks for watching Ricky!
i know this video is old, but what size box where you using for the creature baits
3700
nice video man. this made me subscribe keep up the good work I hope to grow my tackle and channel like that too.
Thanks bud! I appreciate the sub!
I like your videos, very cool.
Thanks Ron!
Would the 4.5 plasma tail fit next to the 6.5 plasma tails in the first box you shown
Disregard that comment I could tell in the later shot they wouldn't fit
How do you keep the boxes cool enough so that the plastics don’t get sticky?
i store my soft plastics the same way every year i use scents to keep em from going bad or drying out it keeps them moist and I have all mine labeled as well
Good deal!
love your vids
Thank you!
What's wrong with storing them in the original packaging they were purchased in, then store them like that in plastic boxes?
Do you leave your soft swimbaits (Keitech, Exoswim, etc.) in their original packaging or move them to a box? I know that they can lose their shape when stored bunches up, but I hate how much space the clamshell packaging consumes. I’m currently using the 3700 deep boxes from Plano, but they don’t hold enough and it seems like a waste of space. Thanks! I watch all the videos, so keep them coming!
pprice01 I have in the past with zero issues, but I use the shallow and keep it stocked so they stay in place.
TackleJunky81 ok, thank you! I will be moving mine to the shallow 3700 boxes, packed tightly, and see what happens. I live in the desert so it gets pretty hot here. Hopefully they will hold their shape.
Does elaztech cause any issues when put in a box. I know some things will cause it to melt.
Yup, that plastic is best left in the stock bags.
I say start off bagging but once u get past like 30 bags of soft plastics u should probably go ahead and start boxing up, I found some good waterproof ammo plastic boxes that I’ve been storing bags of soft plastics in. Works really good for Berkeley stink bait stuff!
Do you go thru a lot of tackle or do you just Have a 10 year supply on hand?
both
Would the plasma tail 6.5 and a 4.6 fit in the 3700 series boxes?
Not side by side
Probably to late to comment this but I see that you just store the plastics without the bag or clamshell is that okay to do? If I do it will my tackle boxes or plastic get ruined?
May warp the boxes, but I've never had an issue with the plastics. Don't box any zman type plastics though.
@@TackleJunky81 thanks, I’m storing googan and Yamamoto baits and thanks for the tip about Zman
hard to bring all these boxes if you are kayak fishing -- I am looking for ways that people manage soft plastics when kayak fishing (also hooks/terminal tackle)
Walter Smith my idea lately has been to use my sons used baby food containers for terminal tackle. I haven't tried it yet. I'm talking about the plastic containers not the glass jars.
I can carry up to 20 bags of soft plastics in an old fanny pack that I strap around the front legs of my kayak seat. All my terminal tackle goes in a flat box that sits under that bag, so it's all easy to reach.
that was pretty good collection very impressed do you fish for a living or do you work somewhere else
I wash trucks for a living.
Dont the plastics dry out if not in the bags?
Where did you get the white peg board behind you from?? I need that so bad
