What's the general rule of thumb when packing Dawgs, Suzys and Super D's in Plano boxes? How big of a concern is colors bleeding when stored out of the sun/heat? Planos with dividers or without? I know with Suzys there's an issue with the rubber melting plastic so how do you solve that problem. I have a small boat so storage is an issue but the Plano box seems to be the best answer.

JT, I use the 3730's for all my Dawgs. (That is the one with the dividers, right?

) I put 8 MagDawgs per box. The Pounders are too big to comfortably fit into each slot, so I use the 3700. You can fit 5 nicely. I've tried to use the 3700 for Mags, but it just gets too sloppy. I've stored Super D's with my Dawgs and have had minimal bleeding. The Suzy's problem was awhile ago when they used Formula X I believe. That is no longer being used.

+1 on what Jim said. You shouldn't have to worry too much about bleeding or melting, but still try to store dawgs with dawgs, SuperDs with SuperDs, and Suzys with Suzys just to be safe.

Yeah I bought a couple 3730's today and they do fit Mag Dawgs pretty well. Unfortunately the twin tail Dawgs I won at the banquet only fit one to a spot. I did drill vent holes in the boxes to keep moisture down which I thought was a good idea.
