Prevent rust
Tackle
now a days doesn’t come cheap so why let rust ruin your investment.
The trick to stopping rust from forming is letting the lure or hook dry
on its own before storing it back into its rightful place. Rust spreads
from one hook to the other if stored damp and when its time for your next
outing, well you know!
When changing up tackle I keep a dry little plastic container in my tackle storage compartment in the boat. I drop the tackle in the container so that it has plenty of time to dry. At the end of the day I sort through them all making sure that they are all dry before putting them back in their rightful place.
It may sound tedious to some, but when you consider a good quality hook costs a dollar and up then why would you put damp tackle in with the dry tackle letting rust spread like the plague!
