Suggestions for lipless crank bait storage?

Kinda sick of having them bang around and chip the paint, looking for a good storage alternative to a regular plano 3600.

Cheers.

Those gamakatsu slit foam G boxes work for just about anything. I have one with lipless cranks. I also add a strip of windowsill foam to hold lures down in some of these boxes.

Check out Erie Outfitters...or Amish Outfitters. They have some unique storage systems for all types of lures.

Use the G box here also, I think they are great. Lot of uses, good in the summer also - hair jigs, chatterbaits, bigger jig heads for swimbaits etc. Don't recommend trying bass jigs with weed guards, the guard gets squished down and  messed up  :whistle:

I did some research at the end of last season and went with the gamakatsu g boxes also.

Link?  Did you mean to say Etsy? I go on there to find my wife a present, not fishing gear, but this could be a way to hid it on the CC bill  :thumbsup:

Bought the new Lakewood case. Pretty expensive but works great for all my cranks.

                          yes I think they call it bead storage case very small 6.6 x 4.5 in.  Inside of that there are 24 individual containers with lids

Here is another option that is available...
https://fishmorecompany.com/collections/all/lipless
I believe you can get the foam inserts if you already have the plano boxes they fit in, or you can get the inserts with a box from them as well. They also make em for jigs/spoons, and a bunch of different brands of jigging minnow style baits. The inserts seem to be brand/style/size specific, but it looks like you can also get some of them in a "combo" insert for whatever brand and style of bait you are looking to use them for.
