Soft Bait Storage

[phinfanfrommd]

This is a question in regards to my soft baits, senkos, zoom, and roboworms.

Do they go "stale" if I store them in something like a Plano organizer? Should you keep them sealed in their bags?

I would so much prefer to keep them in an organizer but they would be exposed to a small amount of air, and I'm wondering if they will dry up? Is there a way to "re-moisten" them?

If you don' t want to end up with rainbow stained baits keep them in their bags.

Rainbow stained?

Colors can run and stain other baits. (oranges, reds and purples run the most if in contact with other colors. )

I just keep them in the bags. Then you know what color, size, etc they are. Plus when you run out. It is easier to find the color again.

A storage system I've come ti like more than the bag styles is Flambeau's 4510 Super Half Satchel. It stores your soft baits in their original bags, has dividers so you can separate different styles or gear and they're made with Zerus. I've never heard of soft plastics drying out, but I do know their colors will bleed if stored together and moisture will change texture if left exposed for long periods.

I store mine in plano 3700 boxes and have had no problems, just use the dividers and keep colors separate and you shouldn't have any problems.
