I keep them in original bag all stuffed into those plano elite worm file bag things I think they are called. Keeps them seperated like a file cabinet sort of I like them. I'll file them by brand it helps me find a pack of something really quick.

I've tried Plano boxes, worm binders, and gallon ziplock bags, but what works best for me is rubbermade plastic shoe boxes with a snap lid: http://www.walmart.com/ip/38691768?wmlsp...369&veh=sem

I keep them in their original bags and store them according to bait type, senkos, worms, creature baits, finesse baits, etc. I also have a tournament box where I store the plastic baits I expect to use when fishing a tournament. That way I have everything organized and ready to go.

This is so true. I also have a 17' basstracker. I started with plano boxes, the tried the binders, then switched to shoe box size tupperware and separated between creatures and non-creatures, now I use the 1 gallon bags. A lot less wasted space.

I made my own binders before then bought one at BPS. I was cleaning my garage awhile back and saw a canvas Dewalt bag for my drill that I never use. I stuffed them all in there and that's been my new favorite way. My boat is 15' and lacks storage. I can throw it on the deck when I load the boat and it takes no room. I use the original bags for the worms and just stuff them inside.

Yep, just leave em in their factory bags and put similar styles together in gallon zip lock (zipper style) freezer bags. Label them with a sharpie. IE: creature baits, finesse worms, mag worms, flukes... Too easy, cheap, neat and efficient!

I use the fine linens wash bags from Wal-mart. ~ $3.00 a piece. added colored tabs for quickly finding the correct one. They breath well, will dry out if they get wet, and they last forever unlike Zip lock bags. Many styles and sizes to choose from

EASY VIEW IS THE ONLY WAY... SO GLAD I DID IT...

Cheap DIY and you have a ton of space, keeps them in their stock packs, I typically buy 3 bags and fill 1 up all the way and then hang it...

Easy View is pretty awesome if you don't mind it in the boat. I just keep mine in binders. One for worms, one for craws, one for creatures, and one for miscellaneous others.

THIS!! I have tried everything and started doing this last year, best idea ever for plastics storage.


Everything on your bass boat is broken......You just don't know it yet.
