At the end of last season I started using a vacuum sealer to make and seal small bags with leaders when I was swimming. I never had much luck with the regular plastic bags keeping the water out. Only got to try the vacuum sealer bags a few times but they were working out well. I put he bags in a small plug bag on my belt. Always like to have a couple of plugs incase I go through all my eels or start getting lots of blues.

I felt like i needed a good place to hold jigs and leaders so i bought a small pelican case from the swedge and a skinz hunter elite jig belt bag. i'm going to put my leaders inside small zip locs(aka dime bags lol) that i'll get from m&d's and put those inside the pelican case which should keep them dry. the small pelican case fits in that skinz bag perfectly.

Luds, check CVS/Walgreens etc.. for the baggies. I picked up 100 "pill bags" for like $3. They are nice and heavy duty.

Last year I picked up a smaller pelican case that I just put in a aquaskinz large pouch on my belt. In the case I can fit a pack of hooks, a few lengths of leader material pre-cut and coiled. 6 leaders pre-tied 1 pack of Marlboros a lighter and at times my car keys. I put a folded napkin in the bottom of the case to absorb whatever moisture I have on my fingers when I open and close the case. I worked out pretty good. This year I picked up a jigging master plier holster and its got a built in pocket for spectra scissors behind the plier holster, Im thinking it may be a good storage area for leaders etc but havent put it into play yet. I think the pelican case was about 20$. The jigging master holster was 9.50$ and looks real solid and well built.

Domination takes full concentration..
