    looking for suggestion for Crankbait stowage

    I have some deep cranks and i hate wasting space so I figured i'd ask and find out what storage box are you using for any Duo G87 15a cranks you have ? Thanks in advance

    I have a deep 3700 box I use. I also just consolidated five regular 3700 boxes full of crankbaits into three deep 3700s. I like the fewer bigger boxes than the more thinner boxes. Prolly cuzz I have to haul my gear from the basement to the boat rather than keep everything in the boat all the time.

    Ditto... I used a Plano 3730 box and consolidated 2 3700 boxes of deep cranks into one box. Much more efficient!

    I have some old BPS double sided 3700 boxes….. been using them for 20 years.
    Academy has a very nice DEEP H2O xpress bait locker. I just bought a few and they
    would work good for cranks….

    I have quite a few deep cranks and i just keep them in a 3700 series box.
    I carry way to many crankbaits really. I have a lot in the deep 3700 Bass Mafia box which works pretty well but I am thinking of going back to jsut a normal 3700 size.

    Those are cool looking, I just use the cheap small black rubber bands that you can get in the beauty section of just about anywhere for $1-2 for 250-400 pieces and that does help a lot.

    I do the same thing for baits that are in a 3700 box. I use the ponytail bands that are like rubberbands. you can get them in packs of hundreds

    I split my cranks by depth and put each group into a separate box. Then I only need to take the box for the depth(s) I am fishing that day.
