I’ve tried a couple different storage options for crankbaits. IMO I prefer the Plano 3707 Medium Crankbait Organizer. Now keep in mind I’m from Delaware, we just have ponds and you don’t find much water deeper then 10ft. So I don’t have many cranks that run deeper then that. But if your wanting organization, I’d say go with the Plano Crankbait Organizers. But if you want quantity, I’d say go with a Deep utility box or the Bass Mafia Deep Coffin.
I put the small craft bands on all my cranks too. The Plano box is made where the dividers slant, allowing the hooks to go under the next section and the lure body to stay up. Without bands, the only way to prevent a hook mess is to make the lures meet bill to bill. When I put bands on I more then doubled how many I fit. I believe I have 30 cranks in mine. 1.0s, 1.5s, 1.5 shallows, 2.5s, Echo 1.75s, Couple Shad Raps, and some Bagley Medium Divers. It holds 3 per section perfectly. Then I have Red Eye Shads, Tungsten 2-Taps, and Rat’L Traps in it too, again 3 to a section. And lastly I have a handful of KVD Jerkbaits in it also. I just do 2 to a row, but you could stack them and probably get 4 in each section. But Plano has different sized boxes, another 3700 series for Large Crankbaits and 3600 series boxes for Small, Medium, and Large Cranks.
I’m all Bass Mafia, the 3700 Coffin is the best thing I’ve bought in awhile. Not only the durability, but having 48 slots, heavy duty, dividers that fit, and built to last. Hopefully this helps you out man.
