I have about 8 of the large 6th sense camo bait bags and 3 of the little ones… I keep everything I need in them including soft plastics, A-rigs, extra terminal tackle, and line, oh and a emergency kit in a green small one.

I agree with this also- plastic in ziplocks & then in these plastic containers.

Also works for me to try/attempt to not load as much plastics in the boat period. Easier said than done...................... ha

I like to scatter them all around the boat, that way I'm hunting when I'm not fishing.

Ive tried every which way over the years. 3700 boxes, ziplocks, laundry bags, tupperwear totes, worm bags, and still dont have a preferred method.

Terminal tackle is in a H20 terminal tackle box with all the BS foam pulled out.
Crankbaits are in a couple of 3700 boxes organized by sytle
Jigs are in a 3700 box by style
Plastics I try to keep them in original package now (used to be 3700 boxes) I have them in ziplocks for now

Only thing I can say Im impressed with is how I story my spinnerbaits/chatterbaits/buzzbaits/swim jigs. They are in an old worm binder. Each page has different styles in it. They lay flat and dont get crushed. Only down fall is finding the pages for the binders now. Compact and easy to flip through to find what your wanting.

Now trailers and boot tail swimbaits. This is a chit show since none of the companies use the same style/size packaging. I carry those in a soft fabric grocery bag. That way nothing gets crushed and bent out of shape. Nothing worse than a new boot tail that is twisted up and not running right.

Now dont get me wrong 3-4 times a year I still have to go through and sort through all the Academy and tackle shop bags that end up in the boat and put them back where they belong.

Just gotta find out what works for you. No real one answer to any of it.

6th Sense Bait Bags

These are what I use. Sorted by color. One bag for craws, one for curly tailed worms, so on and so forth. Just grab the bag you need throw it in the boat and go. Or just be like me and keep them all in there for no reason other than added weight for "stability".

I tried boxes but they take up more room in the boat than Ziploc bags plus tyring to fit them in a compartment is like a puzzle. I bought a 100 three gal heavy duty Ziplocs from Amazon. You can put a TON of plastics in their original packs in them

WHOA!! 3 gallon? Heck i have trouble finding what I want in a gallon sized. Although I do see uses for 3 gallon sized. Never know when you want to brine a turkey.

One thing you can do is prep your boat for 3 days on the water. Most people I know carry enough tackle for 3 years on the water. Reduce the amount of tackle in your boat and it will be much easier to organize.

Glad y’all are offering organizer options. One suggestion would be to make them adjustable so a deep box will fit and not just a regular 3700.

Since I can’t catch fish, I find this to be the easiest. Not sure what I would do, if I actually needed more than a few worms, I guess have the bigger tubs.
