Storing And Transporting A-Rigs

[Jig Man]

I have more A rigs than I need but I like to have a variety of baits and colors to see what is working best in a given situation.  I'm tired of all the tangles with the hooks when two or more of them get together in the box.

 

Anyone got a good system for keeping them apart?

I put them indidualy in a 3700 box with a plastic wire tie wrapped around the arms. Use a side cutter, which you should have for cutting hooks, to cut the wire tie. I'll cut portions of the permanent dividers out for a custom fit. I believe I saw tubes at Cabelas designed to slide the a-rig into.

I have a box in my bag specifically made to store up to 4 alabama rigs. It works great you should check into it. I think plano makes it.

I saw a cover they are making for them at Bass Pro the other day.  Just a pouch it fits in and keeps everything from tangling.

BPS sells a Plano box designed specifically for A-rigs.

Thanks a bunch guys.  That gives me some ideas for a remodle on a couple of old 3700 boxes that are laying around.

Another option if you are keeping one tied on to the rod and stowing it in your boat is to take a 20oz plastic water/soda bottle.  Cut the bottom off, make a cut running the length of the bottle and through the neck.  You can use a lighter to smooth the edges if you need to.  Now just thread the line throught the opening and pull the A-ring semi-taught through the bottle.
