northernpike56 Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) Hey guys I purchased a few spinner rigs/worm harnesses for walleye yesterday, and I was wondering how you are supposed to store them? I now have 6 spinner rigs and if I were to just put them all in my tackle box they'd be a mess and pretty well unusable. Does anybody have any suggustions/methods they use? Thanks!!

I would think another tackle type box where you could lay them flat.I use different trays for different lures I use.Really no way to get around that.

I now have 6 spinner rigs and if I were to just put them all in my tackle box they'd be a mess and pretty well unusable. Does anybody have any suggustions/methods they use? Thanks!! 2 options I use. 1) store them in the plastic sleeves that they came in (or ones from snelled hooks, etc.) 2) Lindy sells a round foam rig holder that keeps them well organized. I bought a set of 3 of them that come in a box. Each one holds about 10-12 rigs. Here is the link to the Lindy Riggers. Edited April 5, 2012 by Nipfisher

ecmilley Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 storing them in the package they come in or tiny zip locks is a cheap and easy way to store lots or harnesses it's when you change em up it can get messy, i store them in bulk in small zip bags and when i change them up i wrap on a lindy rigger or pool noodle ect, in the boat, I also tie up my drop shots before hand and wrap em on a rigger
Terry Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 I thought you were going to tell me how to store them, not ask the question how to store spinner rigs/worm harnesses implies you know how do you store spinner rigs/worm harnesses is a question even how to store spinner rigs/worm harnesses? would help I am not putting you down or complaining just pointing out how many times I go to a thread and by the subject expect one thing , only to find it is something else.....
mercman Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 wrap'em around a pool noodle Yup Been doing that for a while now. Works great too!!!
Rod Caster Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 I also purchase bulk 8x3 ziplocks from luremaking com (canadian) and put my spinners back in a bag everytime. If the bag breaks, just replace with another 5 cent bag
adempsey Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 Many people use pool noodles or the Lindy Snell Holder and put those in a Plano box. Works well, but not very compact. I've seen others use a piece of insulation styrofoam sheeting as well. I picked up some of those Plano harness boxes not that long ago, but didn't really like them much. Just not compact enough for me. In the end, I just use the small baggies from the dollar store. Very light and much more compact. If you want either a Lindy Snell Holder or one of those Plano harness boxes I will send one to you if you pay the postage. I have no use for them.

Ralph Field Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 I will have to get the Lindy rigger kit to hold my pre tied bead set ups for steelheading. I didn't know that they made a plastic box to hold them. I have just stuffed them into my fishing bag.
kickingfrog Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 2) Lindy sells a round foam rig holder that keeps them well organized. I bought a set of 3 of them that come in a box. Each one holds about 10-12 rigs. Here is the link to the Lindy Riggers. I've used lots of different options and this is what I use now and I keep them in their own "plano" case. I like these because you can store extra wights and blades inside the roll (the yellow cap pops off on these, but not on some others). I use a lot of quick change clevises. In the end you may have to try a few options because what works for one person, may not work the best for someone else.
bassjnkie Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) right here. Saw this at Sail today. Great setup for sure. Edited April 11, 2012 by DanielM
Nipfisher Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 right here. Only holds 18 though???? I have at least 18 in chartruse.

northernpike56 Posted April 6, 2012 Author Report Posted April 6, 2012 jeez thanks for all the quick replies guys it will really help me out!
Sinker Posted April 6, 2012 Report Posted April 6, 2012 Yep, the lindy rigger is the only way to go. A pool noodle with toothpicks works good too.... S.
wormdunker Posted April 6, 2012 Report Posted April 6, 2012 Add me to the list of pool noodle users. The Lindy rig costs approximately $10.00 (if I remember correctly) a pool noodle is only $3.00 at WalMart & U can cut them into 10" pieces giving U 4 separate harness holders. Pack the holders into a large tupperware container. Works for me!
