This may sound weird(sp?), but I keep white rice in the compartments of my tackle box.  Got this from keeping rice in the salt shaker to keep out moisture.  It seems to work, no rusted hooks or jigs.

ive saved those silica packets (from when you buy shoes) and stuffed them into an open compartment and they worked well

[PondPro]

Thanks, ill have to try both ideas.

Silica packets work. And you can get them from many different places...If you use the ones from beef jerky then your hooks will be scented next season ahah.

Have a few very old flutter spoons that I keep in a small jar of alcohol just to be sure. Could never replace them.

Just put them away dry and keep them that way.

Thanks, and do you have to spray it with a any sent to get the alcohol smell off.

i use Silica packets from beef jerky bags and it seems to do the trick.

No, but they are ALL metal spoons, silver, brass & copper. Never did it with newer composits and/or painted. All the other stuff I just rinse off, dry and put it where it'll stay dry.I Leave the cases cracked open just in case.

VCI RUST INHIBITOR CHIPS these work very well,i have used them for about 5 years.They are strips of cardboard that are coated with rust inhibitor and i cut them into small pieces and put them in all my boxes.I think gander mtn sells them.
