    Best way to store plastics?

    I am looking for ideas of the best way to store plastics as I do quite a few trips per year where I fly and so I can only take 50# total in tackle - including my tackle bag.
    You know how it is....you wanna make sure you have everything you need but you can't take everything so you end up taking 4-6 of each kind of plastic you think you may need. I am wondering what the most compact and effective way (box) you have found to store your plastics.

    Doing an 8 day trip in a very rocky lake (so will loose some lures for sure) and fishing for 4-5 different species (smallie, largies, pike, musky and maybe walleye)...so will use a lot of minnow imitations (jerk baits, cranks) along with some jigs, spinnerbaits and some craws. Thinking a few senkos too and swims.

    Just tough to get everything I "want" under 50# including bag and pliers, sunscreen, etc.

    Thanx for your input.

    Where are the BIG ones? When are we going?
    LOOKING for a Great deal on a Slightly used 20-21' Boat.

    In the boat, I keep all my plastics in a "shoe box" sized tub from wal mart. I have three diffrent boxes with the contents written on the lid.

    For your fly in, maybe you should check out the larger and heavier duty zip lock bags. I use these for day trips, since the can hold a bunch of baits, keep all your individual packs together, and compress easily for packing.

    My 2 cents.
