Soft plastics on boxes or bags???

[Joedodge]

So I did a search and found a lot of older articles and posts. But as I build out my bank fishing bag. I’m debating trying a 3600 Plano with just the baits I need for a trip. Thoughts and advice?

All of my soft plastics are in boxes unless it is a bait that I might want to try and not give up space in my box from something I know I will throw.  I do understand bank fishing limits your carrying ability.

Love it! Years ago when I was starting out fishing I used boxes. But I’m busier in life now and making my set up fast and easy for quick trips. And have a box so I was considering trying it again. Love your set up

The box with the Senkos is 2 sided so I have another side for different size Senkos.  I also have a Ned rig plastics box that has both the heads and the baits in it.

Very nice! What I’m considering doing is a Plano 3600 and putting baits by color. Pairing different baits of the same color in a spot. So I can maximize what I carry in a small sling pack

Simms dry creek gear bag is my favorite.

I keep everything in the bag except for swimbaits. I keep them in a 3700 tray.

I leave them in the bags. I'd never remember their name, size, COLOR, etc.

In the bags here.

Almost have to with Elaztech.

I keep all my plastics in the original bag

Original bag or replacement laminated bag- then those in either 3607-10 or 3707 open compartment boxes.

For most plastics, a Plano box is fine. Just do not mix colors/brands; some kinds of plastic do not play nice with each other and will destroy both baits, and colors tend to bleed over.

Same here ...

When I'm walking the bank I only carry 3 or 4 of each plastic bait.  The entire bag of plastics take up too much space, and adds extra weight.  When I get back home I put the baits back into their bags.

What do You use as bags when on the bank? I’ve mixed same colors with some. Say 5 inch flukes and 4 inch flukes for trailers in the same bag 3-4 of each and leave the rest at home

In the  bags. Handy just to stick a bag of flukes or stick baits in my back pocket when fishing for just a little while.

I like the plane speed bag and leave them the original packaging
