Hooks, sinkers, swivells and all things bait fishing have their own tackle box.... Then
Billabong lures (shallow) 'Tray'
Classics and other 10 footers 'Tray'
Wilsons and classic 15 footers 'Tray
Daly tray includes polts and home made "scurvy dog lures" etc
Spinner bait box
2 wallets and 2 lge trays of soft plastics
Then there is about 4 trays of new unused lures that are double up's and spares of what's in the trays above!!

Oh Almost forgot there's a tray full of those Barra buster things (a mart cheapies) and a whole bunch of other cr@p that I've found!!
This is a very important tray particularly usefull when my gumby mates are up from down south

Nomad it must have been in the air. I did mine a month ago too. Replaced all the rings and trebles too. Found lures
that I had forgot I had. Put some new pointy bits on them and they look brand new

Must be the season for it!!!!!! Don't think for a minute that mine are always that organised, new rings and trebbles have also been added and new lures found that I don't even remember buying :lol:

I'm with gregsy. Go by colour foremost.

Agent86 · Posted: Sun Dec 11, 2011 11:40 pm Post subject: Re: How do you sort your trays?

nah just have heaps of trays with all sorts in em

that way if you forget one, when you choose which ones u r taking, you will still have some good lures to use amongst the ones you have remembered!!!

Strange but you can usually find a lure amongst them that the fish will like as well!!
