    Z Man's baits

    How do every one store there baits.
    Been cleaning out the boat,trying to shed weight also.

    I been storing them in there original bags in a plastic storage box.
    Been told to store them from other plastic.
    I pick up a few of the BPS worm bags and plan on putting some in them.
    Sotor like a day bag in a .Day storage box in the boat.
    Has any one did something like that.
    Thx

    Stick with keeping them in the original packaging. If you mix it with other plastic products (soft and hard baits, storage boxes, even fabric tackle bags) it will ruin everything it touches

    They also melt boat carpet. Dont ask me how I know. I store all zman in original package and then inside a 1 gallon zip lock bag. I can go through bag quickly and pull out or add baits depending on time of year.

    Zman also makes a binder with 2 rings that the bait packs can be put into.

    I leave them in their original packaging and I leave that packaging in the store. I can't stand Zman products, just not worth the hassle for me.

    I threw all my Zman stuff away. Most of them had turned into water retaining cows. Always had better luck on traditional plastics.
