For big halibut jigs (12 - 24oz), I use something like the
Barb Buddy, in a 2-1/2 gallon bucket. Before that, I used an old milk crate. I'd put the halibut sinkers in the crate, and hang the jigs on the top edge of the crate.
For metal jigs, I use appropriately sized tackle trays. I rinse and dry the jigs, before putting them back into the plastic trays, though. Otherwise they immediately start to rust. Remember, the only thing saltwater won't screw up is saltwater!
For flashers and downrigger accessories, I use the
Plano XL Storage Box.
The
Tackle Buddy works well for storing leaders and trolling setups. When I tie new trolling rigs, I put them in small ziplock bags (they are in the craft section at Walmart) and store them in a plastic storage box. After they get used, I wrap them onto the Tackle Buddy, so they dry and don't rust as fast. I only use a trolling rig a couple/few times, before discarding them. When the mono starts to fray or the hooks get some rust, I replace them.
The
Scotty Downrigger Weight Mate is nice to keep the downrigger weights from rolling around. I know a few friends that use the flat, pancake-style downrigger weights, so they just lay flat on their own.
