Well i got in touch with my feminine side and i just plain didnt like the look of it  But honestly the main reason was that the amount needed to fill the milk crate up actually created less space over all because they didnt fit perfectly. Also if a bait were to fall down, the opening was small and I couldnt get my hand down in there. To each their own, I prefer my method. It looks and functions nicer in my opinion. | |||

| The 2" deep Plano boxes...Model 3731....no compartments...just one, big, wide open compartment. Can get 16 Mag Dawgs in one box no problem. Of course, they'll all be touching...so...you'll want to fill one with all like colors and materials so they don't bleed dark colors into light colors and different materials mating that would melt each other. Remember the Generation X material and the damage they did....careful with those. Those have to be stored all by themselves...if anyone has any of those still laying around. I store all my dawg-style baits in these 3731 boxes....regardless of size. I have boxes dedicated to regular dawgs, mag dawgs, pounders, other misc rubber baits, etc. Only time I used the 3730 boxes with the compartments is for crank baits to try and minimize the hooks tangling into other bait's hooks....but I still cram 25 lbs of lures in that 5 lb box~!  | |||

| Here is an example of what ive made up. This one is a box i keep in my trunk at all times. If you look on the lower left hand corner you can see it easily holds 3 mag dawgs. It actually is a mag medussa and a mag dawg and a regular dawg in there but you get the idea. This is actually the first box i made up, i bought very thick plexi and it is totally not needed. But i wanted to make sure it would hold up. Basically what i did was cut out 4 - 12"x10" sections ...then tape them all together and cut 2 slices 3/4 of the way through them. Then the sections will slide together and then as slide it into the crate. I made them 12" x 10" so that way the baits are not flush with the top of the crate making it easier to carry and rest things on without hooking anything or anyone Attachments ----------------  IMG_20120718_190212 (Copy).jpg (24KB - 164 downloads) | |||
