Maverick Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Just looking at the Plano HydroFlo Stowaway boxes, the ones with tons of little holes so your lures stay dry. Looking at getting them for my crankbaits and jerkbaits. My only concern is hooks coming through the little holes or if it is raining. Does anybody have these? Any comments, good or bad? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitoubass2 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Never seen these boxes, but sounds kinda silly. If my gear gets wet i just leave the box open at home to dry, works like a charm(keep it away from your kids or animals of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tender52 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I wear a vest. But the same applies. If I get wet I just lay everything on my work bench. I do know the style of boxes you are inquireing about and I to am currious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bare foot wader Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 x3 for bringing them inside and air out I've tried drilling holes on the dividers to help with some air flow inside the tray but I don't think it helped, waste of time basically but I tried it for myself anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moxie Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 As well as cracking the lids on trays and boxes to dry them out go through your wifes shoe boxes and look for those little silica packs. I keep a couple in every tray and they work great at picking up moisture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Guess I will stick to the originals. These don't seem too popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassMan11 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I bought one this winter, more because Canadian Tire was out of regular ones. Hooks won't go through.... have not had a chance to test it out really. Not a bad idea though I guess. As other said, I usually just air mine out anyway after a trip.

MCTFisher9120 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Well sell lot's of them but I have yet to talk with a fellow customer to ask why. In my mind if you want to keep stuff dry you but either a normal Plano container or the water proof version's Plano makes. Unless you have dry storage in the boat and always put away baits wet I guess the holy containers might help…Bass jig's like to rust so might be good for them. But if it's foggy out everything may become wet on the inside…I'll find out why…one day lool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
