I do not intend to over pack the bin, and to prevent plugs getting
tangled in my surf belt and plug bag....I put the plexi divider in. I
guess it could have gone up a little higher, but it seems to work
pretty good. I left enough of a gap on the plug hanging side to get
my hand in easily... in the event that a plug drops to the bottom.
Didn't want to put my hand in a bear trap.
I actually just did a test with it and lifted it upside down over my
head. Everything stayed put including the plugs. I could hear them
swinging around but none came free. When I was putting the thing
together I thought I would need a rubber gasket on the lid to force
down on the hooks to keep them from coming free. It turns out it
didn't need it, so the gasket is going back to Lowes.
There is a trick to hanging the plugs that I saw on a pic on the SJ
site, where instead of hanging the plug from the top, you feed the
hook from the bottom. It seems to make a difference in keeping
them in position.

hahaha....yeah, I guess my tackle bin is sort of sad. I have seen guys with more
plugs hanging from their shoulder, than what I have in the bin. For
some reason, I really like fewer options. I am constantly, fighting the
urge to bring everything. It could be my lack of solid experience or
confidence in certain plugs, but I find my mind more focused if I have
fewer options.
My whole plug collection is about triple what I can fit in the box. I am
trying to stick to only plugs I have confidence in....and not buy any
more. Even still, I feel like I should be on hoarders. There are plugs
that I should put in the trash or give away, but for some sick reason I
want to keep them.
