The last time I cleaned the tackle box was 16 years ago. Yesterday started at it again, and had I would guest about 1000 hand tie's and maybe there is 6-7 dozen that I might use. So the kids and grand kids have full tackle boxes today. I hope to get it where I can find color and weight of what I need on the water. Does any of you have a good way to do this? I will be making more jigs so will be back to where I was within a year or so.

I got this idea from TFF, but can't remember who I first saw post it?

I have a soft side tackle "bag" that holds 5 of these box's.

Thanks like that for sure. Did you just cut of the bottom deals out and when glue in the stuff for the hooks?

Yes sir. I used real sturdy foam rubber , but cork will work also.



Be sure to scuff up the space that you plan on gluing the strips to, so the glue will stick.

After this old man has had time to think about it, My thinking is 12 dozens jigs is about right. I tie as needed all year anyway. And also I now use Plastic jigs half of the time, any of you who don't check out Belinda Box's line and you will.
