just wondering how all you keep your jigs stored.

Yep, that about sums it up for me too.
I just bought the Falcon jig box. I'm not 100% sure about it yet.
Jigs and hooks are stored in medical sample plastic jars. They seal and prevent rust.

falcon jig box .... that thing is sweet ;D
How many jigs does the falcon box hold? And will it hold the small swiming jigs too or is it better for the bigger jigs?
thx i like burley's idea the best
i use a tackle logic wrap...it takes up a little less space in my bag than a plano type box
Falcon Jig organizer. Holds 36 jigs. Trailers is a spinnerbait box with the dividers removed, in their original package.
Thats how I roll.
I use the Plano boxes like Burley.
BTW, that jig box is pretty empty Burley.

No gaskett on that plastic box you will be throwing out rusty jigs very quickly.
Check out these medical sample jars in the 90ml size they fit right in the plano exacter high box with a gaskett so you are doulbe sealed.
My sister inlaw works for a medical supply company and I bought these plastic jars for 40 cents each now I never throw out rusty hooks or jigs.
Starplex Scientific and look at leakbusters

I disagree. The rubber gasket keeps moisture out but also in! I only have problems with cheap stuff rusting.
Try a Inhibitor strip in each box, you won't have a problem.
I will look into the jars though.
Plano boxes here, too. One for casting, one for flipping, and one for finesse jigs.
You are correct if you get moisture in it will keep it in. I've had no problem unless I open a box when raining and I just dry it out when I get home.
You will not be dissapointed in the sample bottles I just wish there was a little more geek in me to post the link 90ml with orange or blue lids are leak proof.

To the falcon box guys.. Does it hold differernt sizes well? I have been tossing the idea of getting one around along with the spinner box. I just got a ton of 370 for .99 at the bps classic though.
The falcon box holds med to large jigs great ( 1/4,3/8,1/2,3/4,1/0 ). But for the small jigs,they move around in there slot,they do not fit real well. But I still like it. :

Where are you getting those rust strips from? I can seem to find them anywhere?
Stop at a electronics store they will give you a bunch.

I store mine the same way Burley does in Plano waterproof boxes...except I have 3 of them full now ;D
I also store them in Plano boxes, sorted by size/color/style/brand. This may sound stupid, but I toss a few packets of that dissectant in that comes with my wifes clothes/shoes, seems to keep the rust and moisture away
Falcon has a neat Jig storage box sold at BPS.
