Lure storage
 

My second project today was this storage crate for my trolling lures, I carry as many as 40 trolling lures at a time ( Stretch 25's, Trolling s p o o n s, offshore stuff, etc) I got some PVC pipe 1 1/2" & 2" and cut it in 10" pieces, I need a some more to fill out the crate. Easy to carry, hard to tip and easy ti rinse off.

NIce,

did I see that idea in Saltwtaer fisherman?

Re: Lure storage
 

Maybe, I didn't see it. I started with a bucket but it worked like crap because it's tapered. I had the crate lying around and it worked out great. I have a Magma cutting board that is hinged, I think I may attach it to the top and get double duty!

With hinges or just lips like a bucket cover?

Man that's spiffy ;D

It has a hinge that slips into a bracket and is held in the bracket with a pin

Ahhh PVC & milk crates, building blocks of the universe. Franco, you can also lay a bead of PVC glue down the outside edge and bond another to it. After you get two to bond the lay a third one where you have two edges to bond on & so on. Put on as many tubes as you want & it will be freestanding. Ive also mixed different lengths to accommodate different length plugs. when you get back from fishing just hose off and air dry.

Thanks for the good ideas Brudda Phat!

Re: Lure storage
 

I have a very similar setup in my kayak Franco. I also made a lid for mine by cutting the bottom of a second crate on a table saw (you know, the bottom of another that allows them to stack on top of each other). I then drilled three holes and used plastic wire ties to make a hinge on one side. A small bungie to hold down and you're good to go. Quick washdown of all the plugs like others mentioned. ;) Nice, quick, easy. Less is more. 8)
